Looks sweet Bonus. Well done, you must be stoked.

Great link... if that simulator robot malfunctions it will be death! If it 'crashes' like iRacing does when you hit a wall too hard maybe it will get a bit too realistic!

well i think i found my ring idea to build: http://lagnese.me/Hub/Photos/Pages/Simulator_2011.html

the basic concept idea is there, plus he shows many photos of certain areas to help build your own, yeah i won't go into the hardcore detail that he has put in place, but the base and frame work for monitors and steering + pedals is really nice

Hey fellas here is some pictures of my customized G27 pedals
all i did was bent a 600mm square piece of aluminium checked plate with my bare hands :lol: that i had laying around.
drilled some hole in it and bolted the pedals in after making sure it felt good...
the struts either side of the pedals are actually timber skirting board cut and then wrapped air-con foil tape
to make them look like aluminium..
(some may say that cheating but i say it ingenious I DIDN'T NEED to get the welder out )

they feel bloody wicked too, as i here split the pedals apart more to get my monster feet on to pedals without playing footsies with myself

i used the strut on the side to rest my feet on, but 99% of the time i'm to busy resting my feet on the pedals :lol:
but in saying that i even sit in my simulator to watching movies every now and then and practice my foot control..
(the Handbrake says i'm addict to my simulator and GT5, SHHHH Don't tell but i am!!!) :lol:

thanks m8, not a bad job for throw together on a Sunday arvo. (without any plans)
the pedals feel so much more sensitive now (specially the throttle) got so much more feel.
very happy with my craftsmanship

Very nice. Now you have proper inverted pedals, I bet that's most the reason they feel better eh.

My McIver set up at the moment for my trip screens. Just used a desk i got for $40 from Office works and raided the in-laws shed for some wood. I just then slide my wheel stand in front, attach my Office chair to it with a bit of hay band and race to my hearts content on Iracing. On Sundays I just simply unplug it and wheel the wheel stand into the lounge with the PS3 and get flogged on GT5 cos i didn't do any practice again.
Got to clean a few things up and get some painting done but should come up all right.

Next part of my modular rig has turned up, a 1995 Supra seat for $80, pretty happy with the condition, sporty look and comfort. Raid the Farther in-laws work shop for some wood and I got a pretty good cheap rig I can sit in all day (well i do all ready but with comfort now)
