Yes.. Seat is out of a 1987 Thunderbird TurboCoupe.. I liked it due to the pull out under knee support feature it had. Very comfortable for long stints behind the wheel~
Of course she is :) I think she, like most wives, would rather I was racing at breakneck speeds here in the basement instead of 'real life' like I used to do~! Check my other videos if you want to see the cockpit in action.. there's a vid of my 4 year old driving a Star Mazda at Summit Point :)
ur CPU will go straight on my mobo. I cant afford to upgrade to an i7 coz i'd have to upgrade the mobo, & ram as well as the CPU and that dont include new Graphics adapter. Also, do you think I should get a whole new graphics adapter, or buy another 9400GT to run in SLI with my current 9400GT. Does running two graphics adapters help with only one monitor? or does only help multi monitor set ups. only have 32" & a 19" so coz of size diff, I never bother setting them up.
Hey dude. Nice Set up. Ive just started out on iRacing and am need of some upgrading. I have a core 2, duel core 2.4ghz (same, family as yours but duel core) 4 gig ram, and 1x 9400GT 1gig, but I cant get sufficient frame rate (i.e. its a bit stutter even when says 35 FPS) It seems to need to be up around 85 -ish to not have any stuttering. but to do that I have to basically turn everything off like buildings,distant objects etc and textures on low. If u upgraded would you please sell me ur CPU?
how much your computer cost ya im looking to get one built from a friend but not looking to get to over bored cause his computers are like 3000 to 4000 dollars n just looking for something to play nascar on n maybe a couple other simulators on
NJ, add the buttkicker they have a new amp that has been sim race tested, the old 1 didn't make it long. Wheres your seq/H shifter.... are you only racing inF1 cars. Keep it real, ya can't be using paddle shifters in a old car
awsome build
Well done sir!
Awesome stuff mate.

Good monitor position.. Too many people leave it too far away.
You need to get with me on iRacing and share some design plans. I'm getting ready to build my first cockpit after 15 years sim racing.
im pretty jealous of you right now

Tell your wife its'a "nice coffin"
@huflungpu90 Damn boy what you be smokin'? PC sims are the most lifelike sims out there. I'd rather play Grand Prix Legends than Gran Turismo.
Thats laughable LOL..
(especially from a little boy who calls himself "who flung poo")
Thanks for your insight :)
