I've been looking at game seats like that, but they're so damn expensive... I'll probably end up making my own [ROFL2]Quote:

It has brackets for a steering wheel and pedals. Makes for a better racing feel, and has the added advantage of not needing to bolt/unbolt those items to a desk every time you want to game.Quote:

Also, pedals tend to wander away from you as you use them if they are just sitting in the floor. I typically half to pause somewhere in the middle of the race so I can drag the pedals back within reach.
I was planning on making my own as well, but by the time I figured out the cost of the materials I wanted to use, the time to get it done, and how it'd look when finished it was cheaper and easier to buy one.Quote:

Here's a link, I got the RR1000 http://www.raceroom.com/shop_usa/
Wow, they are proud of their accessories, too...
$70 for a keyboard tray
$125 for surround sound brackets
$60 for a monitor holder is acceptable. It's a damn shame no LED monitors have VESA brackets, though...
$609.80 for my preferred setup and I'd still have to make my own monitor tray.

Traded in the SUV. Got tired of spending $65.00 in gas every 7-10 days.
What game is that Ridge??
Looks prety neat.
I wonder if it will run on xp??
