Want a T-Shirt or Coffee cup? http://swag.barnnerd.com I recently did a full review of a Virtual GT professional motion simulator playing iRacing and it was simply amazing, but it was also $40,000 USD to purchase which made me really appreciate what I have built myself. I decided it was time to do a full review of my racing simulator setup which is in my opinion very good and the best part is that it can easily be put away when not in use and the I don't have to dedicate a system and displays just to it! The foundation of my simulator is the Obutto R3volution cockpit which is in my opinion the best home racing cockpit you can buy. It uses the standard racing position unlike most of the simulators that use a standard street car sitting position. It's also made out of very heavy duty steel and is so strong a 400lb person could easily use it. It's very comfortable and provides a very configurable and modular platform for expansion. I choose to go with the Thrustmaster T500RS as the base with a modified hub and real sparco racing wheel. The T500RS puts out a lot of torque and the force feedback feels great. If I could do it over I would go with the Fanatec Clubsport base with the BMW racing wheel. I chose to swap out the T500RS pedals with the Fanatec Clubsport padels since they are so much better. My driving improved a ton when I switched out the pedals because now the brake feels real and has a lot more sensitivity. My shifter is the Thurstmaster TH8 which can be sequential or a 6 speed manual which gives me the full coverage of shifting technologies that exist in all cars today. To add to the realism when playing iRacing I also added custom mounts for my iPhone and iPad to run the iHud software and show me real time configurable gauges while I play the simulator. My displays consist of three 46" Samsung Edge LED 1080p HDTV's and my top screen is a 27" 1440p IPS panel from Monoprice that I also use in conjunction with software to generate a digital dashboard while I am driving. To add to the realism I have a Buttkicker audio transducer installed on the simulator so you can feel the revs of the engine and the shifting while playing the game which certainly adds to the realism and tricks your brain into thinking you are going faster then you really are which forces you to be more caution and slow down. I hope you guys enjoy this video and I look forward to reading all of your comments. I'm a very interactive YouTube producer so come find me on Facebook and Twitter and let's chat. Also find me on iRacing and send me a friend request, my name is 'Jerry Berg' and at some point I want to start hosting races on there and inviting subscribers to beat me horribly :P If you have a racing setup please post a video on your YouTube channel and let me know in the comments.
