Hey Huck, that gaming rig you have in the pic, did you make that? Did you buy it somewhere?

One question, why are the pedals so high up? Wouldn't it be more realistic if they were a little lower? If you did buy it, how much did you pay for it, where did you buy it, and most importantly, do you think I could fit in that thing? I know you're not a small guy and I assume you fit in easily... Does the seat go all the way back?


Sorry for all the questions, but that looks like a fun setup!

F1 set up

your legs would have to point down, sitting down in an office chair or more like a car. In that set up the point strait forward

The pedal height is fine. Has never bothered me. It's height and length adjustable. It's a decent little setup and if you want one, and are local, he will do pickup for free (well he offered me free pickup).

However, if I have the extra money, I think I'd buy a Playseat setup next time: http://playseat.com/shop/us/

Huck,
Is it a pretty stable set-up ? Do you happen to have the basic dimensions ? I'm kinda tight on space here.
thanks
