Racing Simulator Cockpit
- Thread starter UT_VOLS13
- Start date
I bought the chassis off Amazon.
Amazon.com: GTR Simulator - Model GTA-Pro Racing Simulator Home Workstation Racing Cockpit with Real Racing Seat (Black) and Racing Rig Control Mounts for Driving and Flight Simulator Gaming : Video Games
From there I have the Fanatec CSL DD wheelbase, V3 Pedals with Damper kits, 49" super ultrawide monitor, HP V2 4K VR Goggles.
The PC is something I built
Crosshair VIII Hero Dark MB
5950x
EVGA 3090 Hybrid
are the highlights.
I like the chassis, but if I had to do it over again I would have bought one of the larger name brand units like a SimLab
If you have any specific questions, just DM me.

VR is a game changer. (Pun intended)
I was about to splurge on a set if 4k 1ms tripples and used a friend's VR.
It saved me a few thousand dollars.
If you have developer needs for the monitors, then do it, but for sim racing, do VR.
You should try it sometime. The first time you experience it on a high end macine....you'll just giggle.

I'll send some links to the chassis I would buy if I were starting today.
And yea. The tires are for the "real" race car.
I do the sim racing thing in the winter to keep me ready for the spring.

This is the base chassis I would start with:
P1-X Sim Racing Cockpit | SIM-LAB
The Fanatec CSL DD is the best deal in sim racing for a wheel base right now:
CSL DD 8 Nm | Fanatec
These Pedals are an amazing deal, if you add the damper to the brake pedal, you will swear they are real brakes on a real car.
ClubSport Pedals V3 | Fanatec
This is a great all around wheel and comes with the V2 hub and paddle shifters.
ClubSport Steering Wheel GT V2 | Fanatec
And this shifter will let you to either H Pattern or Sequential
ClubSport Shifter SQ V1.5 | Fanatec
Here are a few links to some videos of the car I race and the racing I do: It's pretty nitch, we've won a total of 5 National Level Championships and had an absolute blast doing it.
