This unit is actually designed by a company called elite pros

The quality of build is amazing!

The steering wheel I am using at the moment sits a bit too high up, this cockpit was designed for a g25. I have a 24" widescreen coming soon too

I have a 24" fuijitsu lcd coming soon which is just the right size for the front of the screen.

I am so excited to get it going :)

G25 is the next on the list

To be honest though I really have to upgrade my video card, i have a 8600gts 256mb card, minimum i'd like is a 3870 to run on this computer (they are quite cheap to buy)

Thanks for the recommendation,
Its just a bit out of my budget,
I could pickup 2 3870 and run them in crossfire for similar performance but my motherboard can't cope with it

As i think you need a better video card to run the game on a 24" screen right?

I did in fact get a HD4850, best decision I could ever get. Its a beast, now my CPU is the only thing letting me down hehe


Were getting quite a few new videos on www.polepositiondriver.com (http://www.polepositiondriver.com) of our racing so it'd be great if you checked em out

Guys, do not buy seats like that, better build yourself.

And for the graphics card , on my old pc (Athlon 2800+, 1 gb ram)

LFS is running very well in full-hd on a 37" philips lcd-tv with a 3650 :thumb:

Thanks G!Nho hehe
I can assure you that the frame is just as strong (if not stronger) and the seat is very comfortable.

I know the guy who designed this seat and they have been working on it for a number of years perfecting it. And yes my GFX is better haha.

Where abouts are you located?
You can get those seats from ebay if you wanted

They are just called bucket seats

Thanks
