Wow, amazing.
Just to let you know - your rig gave me the inspiration for mine (which is under construction). :cheers:
Can I ask you 2 things (measurements):
How much distance do you have from the floor to the highest point of the pedal stand?
What's your distance from the floor to the pillar top (where the wheel is at)?

Measurements for mine are:
Floor -> pedal stand (tilted): 15cm/6"
Floor -> main pillar: 50cm/20"

I'm 6ft tall and I guess those should be good for me, just want to know your measurements.
Cheers.

Glad you dig it. In it's current setting the height from the floor to where the wheel is mounted is 20" high (50 cm). But this is adjustable by the pinch bolts on the vertical beams. I drive it like that 90% of the time, but when someone else gets in, it almost always changes. The pedals highest point (the very back where the cord comes out is 9.8" (24.9cm) from the ground. Mine's much more vertical, because I'm sitting lower to the ground. As you get higher off the ground, your legs have better angle and more leverage to push pedals flatter. My seat is about 4.5" (11.43cm) off the ground.

Edit: I'm 5' 10"

Dude you should get a dashboard from the junkyard and integrate it into the design, then add a cupholder.

Tell me about it. Cupholder would be next on my list of mods. This is all before reverse mounted pedals and height adjustable seat lmao
 
Update, moved the cockpit upstairs so my gf can have the living room again lol. Got a steal on a 32" Acer 1080p.

Nice rig there,

Using WSP for now and because of the little space I have here. But if I had some more space , I know what kind of rig I would make.

Cool cool :) If you or anyone needs me to take some measurements, lmk. I know there's a lot of fear of getting ripped off, but honestly, racing cockpits aren't exactly a lucrative business. I'll leave the entrepreneurial stuff to someone else.
