Love V8 Supercar. You have done a superb Job with your Setup. I am in the process of building my own rig using 80/20 extrusion as well. My setup will mostly be geared toward a formula 1 cockpit but I hope to add an option to accommodate a Super V8 position as well. You have inspired me. I wish you the very best in all your future endeavors. See you on the track. Call sign (CHUCKWAGON)
Amazing setup. Very good video quality also, really nice camera views and editing. You've gotten a lot of views, you should really start recording and posting race videos with the over the shoulder view you had at 40 secs in or even the head mounted view you had starting at 2:20 min in. I think your channel would do really well with V8SC race videos like that. I'm going to give you a sub just in case you do start posting more videos.
+nerves If you are using extruded aluminium, best method is to build the rig around your body shape and preference. You also have the ability to work in some adjustability to the design, as you progress you will find things need tweaking. The rig I built is a fair bit larger in size than your out of the box style rig, as I am a taller guy, shorter people are not really well suited, hence why it is not a good move to base your design off other measurements - everyone is different. Heres some more detailed images if that helps. gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/gteye-racing-chassis-1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/racing-view1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/gteye-racing-chassis-11.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/simworx-pedals1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/gteye-racing-chassis1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/sparco-wheel1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/gteye-racing-chassis-21.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/gteye-racing-chassis-fov1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/simulate-it-shifter1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/simworx-throttle1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/bodnar-simsteering1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/holger-quickrelease1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/simworx-pedals-and-heelplate1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/gtx980ti1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/simsteering-simvibe1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/gteye-driving-controls1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/sparco-wheel-momo-gloves1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/fanaleds1.jpg gteyeblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/11792092_1141948849154961_9170245432080321220_o.jpg
Hello , First off very nice Video !! i hoping you could help me with a question , I have a Human racing chassis , do you think it could support a Fanatec Direct drive on its own ? Such as the Podium DD1 or DD2 ? I could really use you feedback thank you sir , nice rig
Amazing setup Kristian. Where do live in Australia? I'm from Melbourne. I'll be getting my OSW DD Wheel in few weeks. I was thinking to get the Simworx GT pedals? Now I have the fanatec v3 pedals do you think the Simworx worth the money? Cheers Gefferson
Hey man I'm looking to build the same kind of rig as you for my Xbox one to play Forza 6 on. Anyway I'm looking for the parts you put up and can't quite find the specific ones. I know this vid is abit old but any chance we can get in contact and you lead me in the right direction??
+carmel allfrey The best method is to use your own body as a guide for the measurements. I am quite tall and just about all other rigs I have tried are designed for someone smaller than me. I set out to build a rig that suited myself perfectly, and the only way to do that is to start from the bottom and build up, if using extruded aluminium always give yourself some room for adjustability, you will notice that with my rig nearly all the ergonomic aspects have the ability to adjust in either direction, work on one component at a time and set it in the right position based on your own measurements, once it is all in place, you can make some minor changes to perfection.
+Kristian Ristell haha I figured that would be the answer! was just hoping for rough so I could get some bulk lengths. did you use 40*80? or can you get away with 30*60? As per other posters, thanks for the quick reply! Tim. (using wife's account!)
What affect on the car does it have when you press on both the gas and the brake at the same time ? I noticed you doing it and thought it must make the car behave in a certain way ???
Left foot braking and some trail-braking to balance the car, often used to gain some extra mid corner rotation. Its a old technique I used in rallying. Not for everyone, but if done right it can help. I usually only use it in the transitional stages between braking and accelerating to blend the power delivery.
From memory you unscrew the casing, then remove the stand screw from the inside. I recall it had some glue to stop it from coming loose which you will need to contend with.
do you mind sharing your plans for the rig? as im from sydney and Id love to build my rig of similar style to yours, also where did you order your profile/bolts/brackets from?
I didn't make plans during the build, it was built around my size and ergonomic preferences. There is a full parts list in the video description, as well as many other discussions on the build here in the comments.
The genuine item is only available direct from MS Precision in Sydney, but they are super expensive. I was lucky enough to pick one up from private seller without the strain gauge which cost a lot less.
+Parker Chase Its actually the HumanRacing keyboard mount, but could easily be made from a 4-5mm plate of aluminium from any aluminium supply store such as Action Aluminium or Capral.
Hi, Is it 40-I or 45-B Type? What's the length of the rig, and the height of the wheel support, please? I'll try to do mine as soon as possible ;-) Regards, -Sagedavid
+Project CARS - Unofficial The frame is made from "Item" Profile 8, 40x40, and 40x80. The total length is 1600mm, and the wheel deck height is 700mm, however I do stress that the wheel height is relative to my seating height and wheel angle, which may differ to yours.
Kristian Ristell I took your seat support height into account and your real values match my theoretical values. Do you think mechanical strength is sufficient to support actuators constraint (DBOX for example), or would it be a good thing to take the 45x45; 45x90 profiles? Thanks a lot, Regards, -Sagedavid (from France)
+Project CARS - Unofficial Yes, the 40 / 80mm is very strong and rigid, the overall strength of the frame will be dependant on your layout design and joining method. The rigidity of the beams themselves will not be your limiting factor. You can always add further gusseting later if required.
+Kristian Ristell how do you find the shifter?? does the mechanism feel good and require a bit of force?? im guessing tension is not adjustable? cheers
Yes, it is very firm in the shift. I tried a few before purchasing and this one was the heaviest at the time. I use a shorter shift arm which makes it heavier again than what it was originally designed.
hi i'm from italy you video is great, you can help me for detail for costruction and name for brand pedal shifter and other . i want make one similar .thanks so much. best video. sorry for my english .Giuseppe
The company that makes them is called Motorsport Systems in Sydney, they are a load cell transducer therefore very expensive for a shift knob. I was lucky enough to buy this one privately through a forum minus the transducer.

Wow everything about this video is awesome, the rig is so clean, the FOV is absolutely perfect, and the video quality is excellent...
That is one mean sim racing cockpit! Really like those pedals as well!
Always nice to se people with the same interest as oneself to show there stuff ;) Great setup.
Ons of the nicest and simplest rigs I've ever seen! Love it
Simply awesome setup. Professional, tight, clean!!! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome rig mate, The graphics on I racing are unreal..!

Great looking Rig! I have similar components (monitor, Video card, etc.) but, looking to build an 80/20 rig. Can you provide dimensions and part list?

Think I can get your rig plans? Minus the triple stand. Already have one from 80/20. Would like to make a stand out of 80/20 but need a plan
Im Curious to know, where did you buy your shifter gear knob?
Hello , First off very nice Video !! i hoping you could help me with a question , I have a Human racing chassis , do you think it could support a Fanatec Direct drive on its own ?
Such as the Podium DD1 or DD2 ? I could really use you feedback thank you sir , nice rig
Yes, I'm sure it will be rigid enough for the Fanatec DD wheel. It's a great rig, enjoy.
Amazing setup Kristian. Where do live in Australia? I'm from Melbourne. I'll be getting my OSW DD Wheel in few weeks. I was thinking to get the Simworx GT pedals? Now I have the fanatec v3 pedals do you think the Simworx worth the money? Cheers Gefferson
+geffersonh I`m also in Melbourne. Enjoy your new setup, you will love the Simworx pedals, they are great value for the performance.
serious sweet setup.
Only thing i noticed was the pedals. They looked a little flimsy??? When you brake the pedel plate??
Yes, that has been rectified, Simworx have a stronger pedal arm and plate which I now have fitted and solves the flex.
What an amazing setup! Congrats Kristian! What is the main camera you used to make this video? It looks so neat.
+Samir Rifai Thanks, I use Canon 5DII, and GoPro for the POV.
Those gloves are awesome! Where can I get a pair?
+bdottoz The gloves are MOMO Top Light.

Yum, yum, yum!
any chance of some basic dimensions for a noob looking to build my own rig? any build log for it? looks freakin' awesome.

hmm actually looks more like 45*90.. beefy!
+carmel allfrey I used 40x80 and 40x40 sections of "Item" Modular Components from Germany.
Cool : D
No more new video? What is your audio system?
+townnet The sound system is Logitech Z5500D with Creative X-Fi Card
+Kristian Ristell Thanks dude. :)
Hello! Please tell me where buy only Geniuine MS Precision V8SC shift knob?
+Denis Macau Hi Denis, I was lucky enough to pick this one up privately in the iRacing forums. They are manufactured by Motorsport Systems in Sydney.
What affect on the car does it have when you press on both the gas and the brake at the same time ?
I noticed you doing it and thought it must make the car behave in a certain way ???

How do u mount the rear speakers on top of the profiles? By drilling? As i too have the same audio speakers
Yes, I drilled a hole in the bottom of the speaker case, and bolted directly to the extrusion.
Oic.. thats what i thought also coz im gonna be doing the same thing as my extrusion just came.. but how do u take off the speaker stand
From memory you unscrew the casing, then remove the stand screw from the inside. I recall it had some glue to stop it from coming loose which you will need to contend with.
Yup it has this glue which i have yet to decide how to get rid off
do you mind sharing your plans for the rig? as im from sydney and Id love to build my rig of similar style to yours, also where did you order your profile/bolts/brackets from?
I didn't make plans during the build, it was built around my size and ergonomic preferences. There is a full parts list in the video description, as well as many other discussions on the build here in the comments.
i was mainly referring to the 80/20 profile plans (i.e lengths, widths,height, number of profiles etc)
hi
set pedals is good ? brake? clutch? cheers
So awesome. What do you think this entire project cost you?
Around $20K.
Like a boss
Where can I get a V8SC shifter handle like that ?
The genuine item is only available direct from MS Precision in Sydney, but they are super expensive. I was lucky enough to pick one up from private seller without the strain gauge which cost a lot less.
Where did you get the aluminum to put your keyboard on?
+Parker Chase Its actually the HumanRacing keyboard mount, but could easily be made from a 4-5mm plate of aluminium from any aluminium supply store such as Action Aluminium or Capral.

What shifter is that, and where did you get it? And the gear nob?
+Four All Hi mate, all parts used are explained in the video description.

could you please help me i would love to buy the same v8 supercar simulator you have can you point me in the right direction ?
Hi Tyson, It is a custom build using parts from many suppliers. The build list is in the video description.
Tyson McCormack if your wanting to know the game or software it's iRacing
do you mind emailing me some pictures of your build?
where did u get the sequential shifter? thanks
The shift mechanism is from Simulate-It in Melbourne, the shift knob is from MS Precision. Full item list in video description.
+Kristian Ristell how do you find the shifter?? does the mechanism feel good and require a bit of force?? im guessing tension is not adjustable? cheers

The brake pedal flex, look a 1:40, that's not good at all.
+T0n189 Simworx have a fix for that now, after the upgrade there is no flex.
