Fully Enclosed Racing Pod…err, Box
Just when you think you’ve seen it all, something comes along which pushes the envelope of racing pod construction even further. GTPlanet member GTP_joeninety has built a fully-enclosed driving simulator for his living room. No corners were cut, with the ‘box’ featuring everything from interior sound proofing to forced-air ventilation. It also includes…
- Adjustable racing seat.
- Logitech G25 steering wheel.
- Logitech G51 5.1 surround sound speaker system.
- LCD HDTV.
- Keyboard, headset, microphone (for future use?)…
- Interior lighting.
- PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 consoles.
Why go to the trouble of creating such an enclosure? Joe cites his family not caring for the volume at which he plays the game – something which I’m sure a lot of us GT players can identify with. See more pictures of Joe’s setup right here.
