    Hi guys!

    Me and my friend got excited about pc simulation and we just got crazy idea one evening while driving in garage!

    Im building my real racing car and I had spare Ford Puma shell with full of rust.. so we grinded and cutted frame and left cockpit. I weld it littlebit to make frame stronger and we builded some strong mounts for steering wheel, everything is used from scarp. :D We made it two to three days. Friend bought Fanatec clubsport v2.5 kit and we found oculus rift vr headset for it.

    Not like in seen pictures theres now race handbrake and H-pattern shifter and sequential in use. I say Dirt 2.0 and raceroom etc. are great to drive with fanatec and cockpit feels realistic!

    Below you can see some prjoect build, actually I found this great community after we started to think about motion platform future project, and hopefully we get some motion in future, maby only seat or whole frame or then just a new cockpit.

    ..So lets say this was evolution one :D

    Interesting project! Maybe for next upgrade you can use 3 projectors to make a 180degree FOV!
