Now i'm ready for GT5

[Frank383]

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.

Looks good and I see you're about to do some drinking and driving

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.

Very cleaver. Rep!

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.

Very nice setup.

Pretty cool man, but is it portable at all?

You are ready for GT5, but GT5 is not ready for you!!!!

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

Yes if you are two guys because its big, but its not heavy. 👍

Yeah haha thats what I have think when I build it. The possibility are infinite... I can quickly do modification with simple bolt and nut removing... 👍
