Have one here.. GT3RS Fanetech wheel and club Pedals, etc... Use to use it more to learn new tracks. Helped particularly learning the Nurburgring before going there... but now it has become a bit of a toy for the kids...

Best experience though was when my friend who is a digital Architect brought 3D Goggles. You could literally look around the car. My Lap time at Rd Atlanta (A very familiar track) was almost dead on with my actual times. Didn't feel like a game with those things on... No doubt that will be the future of these things.

I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE


I have the Xbox One, Forza 6 (memorized Road Atlanta using it) and an 80' LED hooked up. Where do I find this seat/pedals?

I have a Fanatec V2 base, and Fanatec pedals and Fanatec shifter on an RS1 seat running Assetto Corsa. It's fantastic.

I tried this the other day running rFactor and was very impressed:

Thanks. It runs on a PC. Pricing was probably around 10k with everything. I've been upgrading it throughout the years however.

Since some people were mentioning already simulator setups with VR goggles, i also think it's the future:

(no, that's unfortunately not my setup)

It is the future. There is no good way to describe how amazingly realistic and natural the new VR setups are. It really compliments our physical feedback simulator systems perfectly.

Almost every customer that has test driven one of our VR simulators has bought on the spot.
