Shhhh, i'm trying to ignore the fact i'll really need a wheel to appreciate it. G27 or a 25 at a good price (there are pros and cons of both wheels from what I have read)

I already have a http://wheelstandpro.com/ to mount it on...

CAD Designed then rendered. Used my mates as a base then modified it for me height and set-up

Have the plates made and trying to find an ex stock Cobra Monaco to bolt to it. Making the frame this weekend (can't wait :D )

I'll take one :thumbsup

edit- just a suggestion - could do with making the pedal plate longer towards the seat, gives you somewhere to rest your foot and lever off.

You may want to see if you can add a plate somewhere to bolt on the H shifter of a G25/27 :idea:

P.S. Love the colour :D

That looks ace! If you made the seat base foldable/dismantleable you could stash the whole thing pretty easily, which lets face it, for everyone with a wife, is a high priority. :wink:

Just secured a Sierra Cosworth Leather Recaro for my game seat, but the under structure isn't nearly as cool as that. :thumbsup

That looks as good as my Gameracer one Alan. :thumbsup
Main benefit of the Gameracer seat for me is that it folds in half, so when the frame slides close together and the seat folds down then it takes up very little room.
