Finally got this done. VisionRacer VR3 chassis modified by me over the last 9 months. 120" surround screen, triple projectors, D-Box 4 actuator motion platform that provides pitch, roll, heave, yaw and transducer effects.

detailed build timeline here with tons of pics. http://insidesimracing.tv/forums/viewtopic.php?f=110&t=5479

Alienware PC with dual GTX580s and 16GB of 1800mhz RAM.

Fanatec CSW line of controls, latest and most advanced steering wheels taken from real race cars. Enjoy. :)

Hi.

Realy nice Setup! Wish i had the Same, but would use it way to less.

So yes...... There is a little question...... Do you like Porsche? :D

And does the 2nd Gearshifter work or is it just for show?


Greetings Haldi

Both gear shifters work. The one near my right leg is an H pattern shifter, 6 speeds for sports cars. The one near the steering wheel is a sequential shifter for rally cars. The steering wheel also has paddle shifters for cars of that type.

Yeah its fantastic for flight sims. I've got a Cougar HOTAS with rudder pedals and all I do is slide the seat all the way back and the HOTAS mounts on the left and right of the seat, and the rudder pedals mount securely behind my custom driving pedals. This rig is so versitile. the triple screen mount attached to the rig is only meant for 24" monitors but I modded it to fit triple 46" :D

I've also got a Yamaha sound projector under the middle screen along with a woofer and separates on the camera stands. ;)

great rig

Looks cool. I've got the same wheel on my setup. Any thought to going curved screen in the future in preference of flat? The corners are a bit distracting on the flat screen surfaces.

Awesome..What car racing games do you play? I suppose you're an iRacer too?

I'm just getting into iRacing--"Rookie"---lots to learn in that game regarding tracks/car setups etc. Nice
