Darren,
The pdf file is super nice, thank you. I must admit I was inspired by you an a couple of the other members when I started building my rig. I guess you could say I had 'rig envy' and have been working on trying to get my rig in the same league as you guys. I've found your posts to be very informative and always look forward to reading your comments because I know I will learn something. I've only been sim racing for about 18 months and during that time there were periods where my rig was down and I could not race. Started out primarily racing console games (GT5, etc) and just moved into online racing about a year ago. For now I'm actually doing more practicing than actual racing because I want to raise my driving skills and I'm still in the process of getting my rig dialed in (especially SimVibe - which I love). I'm thinking of going to motion with the SimXeperience starter kit (would rather have D-Box but unless I can find a deal on a D-Box set-up that is probably going to be out of my price range right now).
I love the GS-4 seat! My first impression was no so enthusiastic. I thought, hmm this really doesn't do much but after I stopped thinking about the seat and started thinking about racing the seat worked it's magic on my mind and now I hate racing without it (GT5, etc).
Thank you for preparing the pdf file, it's fantastic and thank you for all of your input, advice and comments on the forums. I would not have been able to build my rig without guys like you taking the time to offer your thoughts. My posting of my review is just my way of trying to give back to the community and I'm glad it turned out Ok.
