Jul 24, 2018 Get this setup, if you are new to Sim Racing - Beginner Guide - Duration: 22:58. Swolabear Recommended for you. IRacing Tony Stewart Talladega Super Speedway. A brief review on the accuracy and reality that is iRacing.
This stand is the answer to my problems. It allows me to use my Home Office and have a solid platform for my racing simulator. As a bonus I can easily fold this up and push it into my closet and out of the way. Build and finish on this stand are fantastic. No sharp edges, paint is perfect, welds are nice and all needed items were in the box, including rubber mats for the platforms and rubber spacers for ensuring a tight fit. This stand fits my Thrustmaster wheel and has room to mount 2 THR8 shifters so I don't need to undo things if I am changing racing styles.
My only 2 cons, and these aren't complaints are: First, you need to remove castors to use this and replace them if you need to use the chair regularly. Second, would like a mounting location for a button box. Active sim racer here. I've done a ton of research on cockpits, both static and motion. I've had a Playseat in the past, built my own PVC cockpit.
I had originally purchased another cockpit on Amazon here but when the time came for release and shipping, well, it never was shipped. Then got a notice that the shipping date would be 'when item was received'. Meaning, I had $500 tied up for nothing until God knows when.
So I got a refund, did more research, talked with a friend who's also a sim racer and an owner of a GTR simulator. He highly recommend GTR. So I pulled the trigger once again and my seat was shipped out very soon after purchase. The big box arrived with no problems in the shipping. It was very well packaged.
Several boxes. I got this because there aren’t a lot of F-1 style chassis under $1k and it seemed like they addressed a lot of the complaints about the previous generation F1-GT. I’m really happy with it, it has a lot of adjustability. It did take me 3-4 hours of playing around with it to get it just right, but now it’s really comfy.Don’t expect that it’s a true F-1 position, the feet would have to be much higher. It is close enough that I don’t feel a disconnect when driving though. I’ve mainly been doing Pro Mazda on iRacing and it’s way better for open wheel racing than my previous GT style setup was.The build quality is decent. Everything is very sturdy.
If anything flexes I don’t feel it, and I have to stand on my brakes to get them to 100%.The buttkicker mount location is really good (on the seat. For the money? This thing is built like a tank! Very nicely done, took me about 20 minutes to assemble, extremely easy all you need is to look at the photo, there isn't alot of pieces to this rig! I was pleasantly surprised to find and new and improved wheel mount, it tilts!!! Which is awesome!
Also the pedal plate is drilled out to fit about any pedal there is! Its all solid metal and very sturdy! I have fanatec V3 inverted pedals mounted to it no problem see pictures! The shifter mount, again very nice! Overall in this case you will get your moneys worth and them some! Great rig, its also plenty customizable if you choose to do so. Just buy it, works as good.

This is now the second racing simulator I have had and it is the best one so far!First my set up: PlayStation 4, TV - 32” ( which is perfect since you are so close), Thrustmaster T300RS and shifter, Buttkicker Gamer 2.Important Note. There is a difference between the “F-GT” and “F1GT”. The F1GT does not come with the play seat adapter for the Buttkicker Gamer 2. The F-GT does come with this adapter and also in a matte black finish.Pros: The simulator has two racing positions F1 (not pictured) and GT (pictured shown).
Most sims have one or the other. This is also very easy and simple instructions. The is a few page document with clear pictures. The last sim I had was cheaper and only had one page instructions all in Chinese. Also, all the pieces fit together. This may not be a big deal for some but.
