First off, I hope everyone is keeping safe in these unprecedented times we find ourselves in.
Obviously a lot of bad happening in the world at the moment, and every event has either been cancelled or postponed.
So how are you keeping busy? Keeping the racing mind sharp. A few of us have gone down the racing sim path, so, for a bit of fun. Show us your sim rigs!
I'll get started.
1989 75 3.0 (Weekend Toy)
1982 GTV6 (Project)
        oo=v=oo
2001 156 (TS Cup Car)
2015 Nissan Navara (Daily drive/Tow car)

We made our rig from aluminium profile
1966 Giulia Sprint GT Veloce - slightly modified!

Ours isn't finished yet, waiting on a couple bits for the PC and running the cat6 cable to the garage.

It's simple and very cheap, and will be a great way to get started with iRacing.

And we kept it true to the marque by using a GTV6 seat.

I think Ava has claimed it, I've even made it so the pedals can be moved so she can reach them.

Hey Steve you should host a Twinspark Cup in iRacing!

Awesome!
My son has a PS4 - What's the best car racing game do you think?.... AND what about hardware [steering wheel/pedals/etc] recommendations?

Neil Choi

Logitech G29 and Assetto Corsa or iRacing on PS4 or PC


Thrustmaster has an equivalent

Its been 18 months of this. Which means 18 months of sim rig development.
