I would like to see other people's setup. Mine is pretty ghetto lol. Backpack as racing seat harness. Flight stick as sequential shifter. Steering wheel made for ps3. Pedals with cardboard on them because they are too close together.

After I clean the box office this weekend, I'll take some photos of my setup. I've been wanting to for some time, just need to rearrange some stuff.

Holy cow, I love it. I'm planning to get a playseat soon. Do you know of any with a harness. It makes it feel more like I'm in a real car. And what wheel and pedals are you using?

Have updated a good bit since these pictures, but the racing set up is about the same.

Looked all over for the chair, it reclines like a car seat as well as tilt and height. Helps being in the proper position.


Added a slide out shelf over the keyboard pull out on 100 lb sliders to eliminate shaking/vibrating, now also drilled out for hard mounting.


Pedals are mounted to the shelf added under here. I leave it there all the time, never in the way for normal desk use.

Latest iteration.



No, the room isn't that clean -- I 'shopped out the plastic bins to the left.

The plan was to paint it. But I haven't had time to do that yet.
