Hi, my name is Marshall Rivers, I build the MADSimRacer.
I had several things I wanted to do when designing my JR wheel stand. First I didn't want a center post between my legs. Second I wanted it to be adjustable in every way from pedal angle to tilt of wheel. Third I wanted it to be strong enough to take all the FFB modern wheels can dish out and be stable.
I ended up with a very versatile design that can be set up with the "twin tower" support on either the left or right side of cockpit. Then I added the wheel swing up mounting arm so it can be lifted out of your way to make entry and exit easier. The whole thing is built to be upgraded or added to whenever you want, seat kits and future features will all bolt right onto the JR wheel stand.
I've read several threads here talking about repairing or modifying wheel stands after purchase, that is why I build this with so many adjustments and so strong. This is not a toy it weighs over 40 pounds and if it breaks I'll replace it.

Just to confirm, Marshall's post has been approved. 👍
 
AMAZING!!

I purchased the JR wheel stand and it's the best one I've ever used. I have had so many different types over the years and they don't even compare to this new one. It's built like a tank!

I can't believe how many different ways I can configure and adjust it.

Glad I found it!!

Sounds like MADSimRacer has created a second account, 1 post and registered on the day of making the post. :D It does look like a nice stand though.
 
I have read like 5 reviews on this rig. All where by low post count accounts and they have all said basically the same thing. Seems like they where written by the same person. This might be a good product, but without a legit review a guess we will never know. 👎
 
I did send an E-mail to some guys that have them and asked for reviews. I'm hoping some others show up someday.
 
Admin should be able to check the IP addresses of the accounts/posts in question and confirm whether or not they are the same person.

It's unlikely but he may have changed his IP, I've done it before to get around bans on SA-MP servers. :sly:

This is the third wheel stand I have owned. Finally a well constructed product. The two that I owned before this both fell apart within months. The madsimracer seems to be built with an adult male in mind. Strong enough to feel like the seat, pedals & gearshift are connected. Makes it feel like being in a real cockpit. I am sold.
