My Racing Seat Project

[TDUFREAK500]

Me and my Dad are going to be building a race seat setup during my time with him in the summer holidays for gaming on the PS2 (will eventually be a PS3) and the PC

 

this is the Racepro seat and harness that we got given which is worth about $500

Interesting! I almost attempted something like this a few months ago, but then just got a desk instead (on the grounds that it was at least possible to do homework on it). I still find the topic very interesting, though - good luck with it! :thumbsup:

Pretty cool! Good luck on it! :)

 

Btw, don't you think it's a bit cramped?

[TDUFREAK500]

no it is perfect for us will update with more photos later

I'm impressed mate, I can't wait to see the final version.

 

I find in my simulator its more involving when you are all tucked in :)

[TDUFREAK500]

Wow cant believe that I stopped on the updates LOL, its been finished for like a year and a half now, should be finally painting it in a few weeks. I will post pics when I have painted it

[TDUFREAK500]

well I wont get to paint it this holidays, I have the flu so I can't go out to my grandparents because if my granddad gets sick it is very dangerous to his health. So probably wont be for another 10-12 weeks

your dad looks like the suspect on the tv I saw the other day :hmmm:

[TDUFREAK500]
