Was gonna get a g27, but I caught "I want it now", and there were no g27s in stock locally.

I may upgrade once I learn how to not suck.

I was rippin on the wheel very shortly after I got it. Its lightyears better than driving on the controller. You will be killing it soon.

How you set the wheel up is very important. Having my professionally made racing seat makes all the difference. When I started out I was desk mounted too. Worst part was the pedals slipping around. While it worked for the time being nothing beats good cockpit. When its all mounted sturdy and you are seated in a proper driving position you can really have at it. Drifting with a wheel is especially fun

Well, the DLC has been delayed until next week. It hits Europe and Asia today but somehow us Amercans got screwed. Boooooooo.

wheelstand pro

i got that stand and i just set up my g25 on it in front of my couch. it's not perfect but i don't have the dough or room for a real racing seat. i'd definitely recommend it, for the price.

^Do those short nubby posts extend at the bottom?? Looks wobbly, no?

Eric · 10-18-2011, 03:28 PM

I spend a lot less building my own setup. Grant it that I can't fold it up and put it away but fortunately I have plenty of room to have one.

Alchemy · 10-18-2011, 04:11 PM

^ looks sturdy!!! Positioning looks nice as well

If only I had the room for something like that...repped!

Eric · 10-18-2011, 08:23 PM

I really isn't all that big. The measurements are roughly 2 by 4 feet. It's no bigger than the chair in front of your computer monitor.

what kind of seat did you use? lol
