Finally got me a DFP :)

Damn, i forgot a picture of my chair ...

Here's one issued from PC world.

I'll post up a proper one soon.
 
Just a quick something-something to show just how far some people take their love of 'sim racing' (GT4) to the extreme.... :D






I got a funny feeling this chap can't wait for the next version of GT to have a 'cockpit' view! LOL!
 
well guys, just finished my handbrake, works pretty good, but for now, it has no tension, its pretty much just the travel of the button that it used to be, but i plan on building a stronger surrounding and tensioning it with a spring i have that takes maybe 15 lbs to begin expansion.
 
I will have a DFP in the 25th December 👍 (Santa is going to give me one :P ). My cockpit is going to be simple; it (will) consist on a big table (that I already own and in which the DFP wil be atached), in a office chair (that I already own and in which I will obviously sit) and (not sure of this one yet) a place where the padels will be in an angle (or I can just leave them in the floor but I think that that isn't so confortable)

CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY DFP!!!!! :dopey:

:cheers:
 
this is what i call my Coca-Cockpit. i'm just using it for a week or so so i can find an optimum seating position before building my proper cockpit (which i will document on this forum, as expected!). anyways, feel free to point and laugh!

hey poopsht, cool thread. Could you possibly update my pic for me? the one you have is a photoshop i made to see what my setup would look like in black, now it actually is black and has some vinyls on it.

Here's the new pic:

whats he gonna do when the ps3 comes out?he'll have to rebuild the entire setup
 
long time no coming to the forum that cracked my addiction!!!!!

I've made 4 simulators for rent. Next year I'm organizing the very FIRST GT Tournament in my country ;) I still have to try the 3 monitors set up. I've already connected them and they work great, I just love this game and can't get enough of it.

i got the greatest setup ever, chair-$20, wal-mart...Table-$20,wal-mart. DFP-$150, best buy.

Alright, thats missing one thing, simpson 5 point racing harness, incase the chair breaks...

lmao, man i am sitting in that exact same chair (same color too) right now. These are like the perfect level for a racing chair but the part of the steel beam that your thighs rest on near the front of the chair get really kind of painful after extended sits. Pillows don't seem to help it either :/
 
Finally got round to making it on saturday. Wasn't the best idea to make it the day after our work Christmas party but at least it works. Cost - Some mdf I had in the spare room and £1.40 for screws.
