Formula One Gaming Setup

[jamieyoungsongs]

wait till see mine, I'v got a HD ready projector and a custom made mclaren cockpit and front end, riged up with xbox 360 force feedback steering wheel , no hydrolics but have built in to the cock pit a pyramat gaming chair with subwoofer so you can feel and hear the engine trust me its awsome, I only like F1 car games so I have gone all out,I post vid when game comes out next week.

Bit the bullet and bought a Playseat Evolution black of course

F1 2010 already bought on Steam for only $36 US

16 days to takeoff !

[Ferrariman601]

I race in my bedroom with a Logitech G25 and a Logitech playstation-type controller to change some other settings when I play rFactor on the PC. I also use a little folding tray to put the G25 on when I play F1 CE or Gran Turismo on the PS3.

how booring.. DID NOT SEE

I would like to have a nice set up but the problem is that I have next to old money... to give you an idea my current set up is a ten year old 19 inch screen television screen hooked up to the good old nintendo 64. I could tell you what would be the best but I'm sure someone else has already mentioned it and I don't think I'll have enough room to describe it. I wish you guys the best of luck.

I use a steering wheel and I race in my own bedroom. Cool video mate!

[blueincpc]

My set up is pretty cool. g25 racing wheel, playseat evolution with gearstick, 42 inch 1080p samsung, 800watts lg surround. suck on that.

[swanny812]

i got a g25 (best ever) z5500 surround sound samsung 2463hm monitor rest is not worth mentioning seeing ass that's all your interested in.(I HAVE A VIDEO OF IT ON MY CHANNEL CHECK IT OUT)

[skaife2]

I'll be getting a Playseat soon, an A1GP special too!!

[TheRealJakeKool]

Bugger paying that much, the G25 is awesome construction !

[TheRealJakeKool]

I'm gonna get a small table and a low enough chair to setup my G25 in front of a Samsung 32 inch HDTV and try out the PS3 F1 game :D

Otherwise its on my desk playing rFactor & mods, GRID which is really a nice game, F1 2002, and Richard Burns Rally !

This is what I like to hear! Dedication to one's sport ;) - Max

[TheRealJakeKool]

Just got onto STEAM and got a pre purchase offer for GTR Evolution from SimBin

Looks pretty good ! includes the Nordscthingy :D

[interludepl]

Does a shitty grey PSX with a custom Logitech analog pad, a small 16 inch TV & an illegal copy of F1 '97 game count?

[F1Podcast]

Ummm, kinda not buddy!!!! Of course, you'll join the 21st century next year with a PS3, G25 and a kick arse t.v right?!!!! - Max

[TheRealJakeKool]

My 32 incher is so puny nowadays.. ha

[saunallezellite]

At long last i tried your Spanish GP setup that you sent us for the ps3. Knocked a whole second off my lap times in the Honda!. Cheers guys :)

S.

[F1Podcast]

Cool mate! Yeah those settings from "Hondara106" always gave me at least an extra second per lap! His setups are great. Cheers, Pep.

[F1Podcast]

That's what I'm talking about!! 11.2 speakers ... fantastic. I'd need a bigger loungeroom. LOL. Will checkout those steering wheels, thanks. (Pep)

[f1russ]

good question gentelmen,F1 RIGS?Well i play on a pro playseat with gear change accesory built in and logitech g25 wheel infront of a big screen tv,full surround sound and a butt kicker built into the base of the seat,all bought for around $600 u.s. dollars,not the greatest but you two could afford this same set-up and it' perfect for racing on-line especially the f1 ps.3 and gt5 games.i will try on video it for you,there are better rigs out there but this is great for the money

[F1Podcast]

Cool setup mate! Very nice, please send a video or photo's if you can. Cheers, Pep.

[Slmjm884]

Nice ripped jeans you got there.

[DoctorMeatDic]

I'm heading to Sydney on the 27th of Dec for (at least) 3 months and I would love to meet you guys if that's ok? Let me know! :-)

[F1Podcast]

F1 Podcast VB's in Sydney! Sounds good to me, count me in. (Pep)

[F1Podcast]

Sounds good mate, we'll def catch up! - Max

[KimiFerrari]

atm i have my pedals taped to the undertray of my desk and have to use the wheel on my lap on a hard chair that kills my arse. so not ideal really just extremely comical if you could see it, i also have pillows to rest my feet on :)

[F1Podcast]

LOL! Thanks for that mate. And so glad you have those pillows for your feet! ;-)  Pep.

[F1Podcast]

Mate, type 'gameracer pro' into google and you'll find the rig you're after. It's sourced from overseas so the $AUD has an impact on the price. I'm looking at getting one myself. - Max

[SsamF1]

does anyone know if any Australian stores sell playseats instead of having to order one from over seas.ive been searching but hope is fading :(

[mkballer]

Oh if I only I could brag about my awesome setup. For now though I just play F1 Challenge (with the latest mod) on my laptop just through the keyboard. I haven't really got the dosh to splash out on a massive setup, but I'll probably pick up a decent wheel or something, I'm not going for the race seat until I win the lottery or something!

[vidmanx0]

I would love a proper racing seat but I can't convince myself to drop a grand on something that won't exactly impress the chicks (quite the opposite in fact)

[TheChosenRed]

Nice idea guys! I havent got much of a set-up....just my bed to sit on, a dusty old PS2 and a crappy tv.....Just waiting for the Codemasters release so I can unleash my Xbox 360! Come on 2009!!!!

[F1Podcast]

I spent many a year mashing my keyboard while playing Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix 3 on my PC. Then Microsoft brought out the Sidewinder Gamepad and OH BOY I was happy! (Pep)

[jimmydigital]

I haven't really played racing games since GP2 back in the mid 90s.
