The one thing I have noticed about these rigs you guys post is field of view, don't you find the screen way too far away?

^That's not fair! 
I'd imagine if it works with microsoft windows they should probably make it work with microsoft xbox too, oh well i guess I won't be buying a wheel until someone releases a good xbox/ps3 wheel
or at least wait till ps3 comes out to buy a used G25 they'll probably be under $200 by then

Sooner or later I'll be ripping out my front seats. When that happens, I'll build the Home Depot-Volvo version of your set up, Hondaracer. |

Since we're having this dork fest i thought i'll post my set up
when i upgraded to the g25 my dad helped put together this racing stand for me
I attempted to spray paint racing stripes last month. It was meant to be used with the couch for viewing distance/audio sweetspot but it's a bitch moving it in/out 
hooks to keep pedals stationary
the wires looks messy but it's actually quite tidy. I have the USB cord tucked into the floorboards so it seems almost like it's wireless

I know what you mean, what I meant was funny.
What's cheaper? Bona fide JDM or shifting on the left in your Rona-powered rig? EDIT: twitchyzero, your dad is WIN. |
