What wheel/seat/stand setup are you using? (Top Guys in Particular Please Respond)

[realfrankdux]

Really another 32xbr2 owner? Still one of the best small LCDs ive seen to date

 

[Seankf1105]

So what's everyone using for headsets/headphones with a mic? I want to pick up a decent set to do some online racing with you guys but dont want to end up paying $80 if they are POS's.

Forgot to add a pic on my original post.

I have a Rocker chair but it doesn't work since the coffee table forces me to mount the wheel high. It kinda feels like driving a truck.

Oh, and FYI, I've been too lazy to pack up the Christmas tree.

Same TV as me. Shocking ain't it.

Same pajamas as me.

Great minds think alike? I had all the tell-tale hangover gear on; flannel PJ pants a hood from middle school and the hand stamp from the bar I visited the previous night.

Hahaha... I was rocking my flannel PJs all day last Sunday as I ran Cape.

And yeah, my seat is pretty comfortable. I do a lot of karting so I am used to the positioning. My only gripe is that I don't have enough clearance to heel-toe with the way the pedals are mounted; I am left foot braking and shifting with the paddles. I may throw a cheep seat on for some more neck support, but I can sit for hours in it.

I don't have room for a fancy set-up, so it forced me to design my own that could disappear or be put away (which keeps the wife happy).

You can use it sitting on the sofa and once you're done, you can use it as a coffee table.

Pjs remind me of my old kart suit .... I think I got the best time in my pjs and a hoodie. Anyone from the top post some of their best times in their pjs, this could be fun knowledge.

Heres a small video of my set up. I been sim racing with the same G25 since its release years ago. I finished round one around 78th in the west.

Ya, it took me a while to figure out how to get my image uploaded.

Built this beast over the weekend, just in time for Round 2.

The seat is out of my '72 Opel GT, lol.

Materials:

two sheets of plywood, three 1x2s, and liquid nails = $60.
bolts, washers, and nuts = $5
and I 'found' a 2x6 nearby that I cut into three 27" pieces that I used for structural supports under the deck there = $0
nails and screws = already had them, $0

total = $65

 

[BlacqueJacques]

More fun with wheel and seat, regardless whether you are a 'top' virtual driver, or not

That's awesome. Seriously. 👍

Well I don't have a pic right now but I'll try to upload one later. I'm using a 2yr old G25 attached to a Playseat Evolution and racing on a Sony XBR6 46". I've done a couple of mods with more in the design and construction phase. The top half of my wheel broke and was only hanging on by the leather wrap so I bought a Sparco 310 F1 style racing wheel and attached it using a 3.5" dia piece of aluminum that I milled down to a half inch thick...wheel to disk, disk to original G25 mounting holes. The potentiometer in both my accelerator and brake pedals came lose and in the process of researching a fix, I came across the Perdect Pedal brake mod, wow what a difference! I also have a nice aluminum shift knob that I have yet to put on and I'm working on building my own metal framed rig which will let me drive heel & toe (can't do with Playseat Evo).

just got 20th in the NE at Madrid with this ghetto setup:

 

[scca_ziptie]

I'll be trying to move up the leaderboard on Sunday with my DIY sim. The seat is from a 300M Chrysler (power adjustment & heated seat still function) although the heated function isn't used very often.

[speedracer_-44]

Seat is out of a 1985 RX-7. Rails are still attached for full adjustment. And it has lumar adjustment

 

[CudaMan]

Nice CART rear wing!

I use a Bob Earl VRC. It sits a bit low and I had to make a wooden angle-fixer for the pedal base to get it comfortable but it seems to work well enough. The wheel is very stable.



The book is there to keep the pedals from sliding down since they're not hard-mounted.

Really old pic of the rest of the cockpit from GT4 days:

[I use a DFGT now after the DFP pedals stopped working altogether]

 

[skubaben]

Am using DFGT atm. But i have order Porsche 911 GT3 RS V2 Wheel and Clubsport pedals made of aluminium. It says it will come in 2 days now! I belive this is the best wheel for me out there. But come to think of am going to miss my handbrake on the DFGT wheel. So guess i have to find a nice solution for that
