Racing simulation rigs
Anyone got any advice on shopping for an entry level simulator rig, mostly just the ****pit and controls?
I had Nascar 4 and a wheel/pedal set back at the turn of the century, I know they've come a long way since then, and I don't want to clamp it to a desk.
For the grandkids....they're both accomplished real life drivers, little man is eat up with it especially.
What's the hot game package?
Has anyone yet developed a decent bracket racing sim?

Thanks for your input.

there are a TON of sim-rigs out there for racing. your budget and the features you want will be the deciding factors.
force feedback (electric vs hydro)
hydro vs static pedals
sim motion/actuators vs fixed
seats
shifters, controls
the list goes on.

there is a matter of having monitors and a PC which will depend on your requirements for video resolution and the types of "games" or "simulations" you plan to use. games like assetto corso have a solid modding community that includes graphics mods for realism but you are talking about needing a 2-3k built PC to run something like that reliably for any extended period of time.

I have heard of a user built bracket racing game. If i remember correctly it was developed some younger but recognizable names in bracket racing. I'm sure if you asked around on facebook or a did a google search you could find it.
