Lets see those sim rigs. VR, monitor setups, DIY or bought.

this budget rig one is almost ready. I didn’t want to spend a lot on hardware until I know how much I’m actually going to use it.

seat and dash/pedals are two different parts, so hopefully easier to stow away when not in use. Total cost was ~$150 in wood and materials, $100 used Miata seat, $400 new logitech wheel. So-650 all together.

My grandson got a Xbox for Christmas and we have been playing Forza quite a bit.
Really impressed with it, especially the details in the car’s graphics.

While he drove like a champ, I struggled with steering control when using the joystick. Might have to convince him he needs a setup like yours with a wheel.

Yeah the wheel feels great but you’ll definitely have to make sure you can press pretty hard on the pedals, the brake is almost as firm as a real car.

Downloaded Forza but haven’t played yet. I really wanted the motorsport Forza but the next one looks like its going to be a while.
