My friends and my go to is either Project Cars 2 or Assetto Corsa. Both can be had very cheap if you keep an eye out for steam sales or on cdkeys.com Try to get the deluxe editions that include all DLC cars/tracks. I am looking forward to checking out Project Cars 3 at the end of the month but there's some controversy around the direction of the game going towards appealing to masses. We shall see.

I guess I can look to see if there is a steam sale on PC2. AC looks good too. There are just so many options that I don't want to overpay for a game that isn't up to the hype. What is a good price for PC2 with all of the DLC? |

Pcars2 Deluxe edition (all dlc i believe) - https://www.cdkeys.com/project-cars-...c-steam-cd-key $13 AC Ultimate Edition - https://www.cdkeys.com/assetto-corsa...ate-edition-pc $10 AC and PC2 both can be had within that price range and both are great with AC being overall a more "realistic" sim w/ better tire model according to SIM community. PC2 is more user friendly especially for creating and joining online races with friends.

You're wasting your time with an xbox, there are really good simulators out there and all the "hardcore setups" are off the shelf hardware that snap together with minimal configuration and cost less than the sweet rims you put on your 5 series.
In other words it's worth doing it right cuz it's not that hard or that expensive for what you get. |

Forza is a legit game and with Wheel/Pedal setup you will be close enough for a starter set. From there you can decide if you want to indulge more in the hobby. One thing is that from the mainstream to hardcore setups things get boring fast. Fewer people playing, stricter rules, more expensive etc.

You think those of us that Sim Race lock ourselves in the basement and never leave the house? LOL I have a full sim rig, a full gaming and movie theater room. Bar. But I still have a normal life, race real cars, a job and still smash my GF lol After a long day of work. I can hop in my rig for an hour or 2 and just enjoy it. Its nice to do once in a while. When its raining or snowing you arent tracking your car, so this is a great alternative...... Some haters just want to hate. |

yeah, it's chill to just jump on a sim sometimes! I can't go on the Nordschleife everyday and time BTG haha so the sims a nice touch. Assetto Corsa's mods are insane for that

Home brew.. Ebay NRG seat/sliders, $40 in tubing, $60 powder coating, sedan driving position.
The wheel/base and shifter are set in one position but the seat being on a slider and the pedals having different mounting holes gives plenty of adjustment for any size driver. Simple design that functions very well. I slide my ottoman up next to the rig in front of my 65" for my keyboard/mouse/remotes.. drinks! 20190110_125438 by j. miller, on Flickr 20190110_142225 by j. miller, on Flickr
