Hey all - some of us talked a little last night about rigs and set ups - so if nothing else i thought it may be interesting to see whose got what.

Yes i know there are a bunch that are running the ‘controller’ (thats so 80’s dude) but considering most of those controller guys kick my a$$ it just proves that a rig isnt everything (id like to think mine is more than adequate but doesn’t necessarily make me any faster - more realism perhaps)

as well id like to hear from the G29 guys about their wheel settings (force feedback etc) ill post mine a little later -not in front of my machine right now- if nothing else for interest sakes....

here’s my rig

- g29 with ricmotech brake load cell mod
- Ricmotech DIY rig (essentially a set of wood working plans for $45 - i thought totally worth it as it saved me hours designing)
Inverted pedals (much better ‘feel’)
Sony wireless ear muffs (highly recommended as well)
Mazda 6 seat from the wrecking yard
And a 32 inch monitor.

biggest benefit? I haven't had to wait for my wife to ‘finish watching her movie’ since i built it a couple years ago.

Oh man those vertical shafts to stabilize the up\down movements on the stand is gonna be good help. My stand looks similar, but I don't have those shafts, so naturally it has some slight play (about 1" travel) up\down. I can't gripe about the $55 price, but now I want to do some drilling!
