Some great photos! Reminds me of when I first started riding motorcycles, I turned up at a biker cafe on my tiny Honda CM125c. Surrounded by folks riding really impressive machinery, I felt a little embarrassed until a guy next me pointed at my bike and said "You're still one of us". It doesn't matter what rig you have, you're one of us.

My Reverb G2 VR / Fanatec setup shoehorned into a 90cmx165cm space where my fusebox / leccy meter are.
No cockpit flex here, wheel mounted to 80x40mm steel box section. 2nd hand rally seat on adjustable slider

That's actually a great way to simulate the F1 Cars from the '60s

It is not about what you have. It is about what you do.

Ahhh I had that flag too. Nice memories.

This was my rig would have looked like in the 90s. GP, GP2

A Z , . haha that's definitely a "show me you're a 90s sim racer without telling me you're a 90s sim racer" thing

You’re saying there will still be cars around?

August 2031 Logitech releases G931X as an all-in-one rig with 360° motion sensors for maximum immersion

For a fraction of Fanatec's Bentley GT3 wheel price

I am still just attaching my old g25 to my desk when I want to race. I'm surprised it still runs ok after all these years. It tends to smell with a lot of use.

They are not the greatest in terms of realism or sheer power, but those older Logitech wheels could last forever. I used a DFGT for almost ten years I think? And I had already bought it second hand. Regular maintenance and regreasing helped a lot I guess.

I think people should not post their normal rigs in this thread now, this is what that legendary one is for

..but please keep posting oddballs
