There's my new cockpit made with some rack bars. I've not finish it but i'm very happy of the result. I have inverted pedal on it and all are adjustable include pedal height and angle, steering height and angle. Next step is make a small mount for the shifter on the side and fix the chair to the cockpit. All the material cost me around 160$. Its a bit expensive but that structure are very solid and look good in my living room. When it wiil be completed, I'll paint it black.

Ps : Sorry if my english are bad

Brilliant! I was wondering where you managed to get that type of drilled bars.

Keep up the good work,

You don't have a wife, do you?

The first two pics made me think you put barbed wire all around it. It ain't pretty, but it gets the job done.

That's a nice use of garage door metal hangers you can get at lowes or homedepo or any hardware store. I have the same stuff used on my pod just square tube one. Cool!

If I was you, I wouldn't try bringing a date home unless she is a geek

There is absolutely no need for a wife/girlfriend once GT5 arrives, for 6 months at least.

fixed. The setup looks great. Wish I could do the inverted pedals but the Obutto has no bar to attach them if I did that.

He could put barbed wire in for decoration after he paints the bars black. Also add a cup holder for the long endurance races. I think you have a pretty hardcore setup to warrant for one or two!

Amazing man its like de ja vu cause you made it out of the same material I was thinking about making mine out of.
My mom has a shelf made out of those I wanted to pay her for it so I could do what you did. However mine would be slightly different.

It's like full-scale Erector Set/Meccano! Think of the possibilities!
