    ^ That's not even close to being humble. Drool-worthy, yes! Very nice.

    Thanks very much for the comments on the R-Pod. Here's a few additional pictures of the features / materials if you're interested in that sort of thing:

    Buttkickers - 2 under the seat:

    [​IMG]

    I also have one next to the shifter and one under the pedals and these are driven by Simvibe.

    Adjustable pedal set - mounted on seat rails:

    [​IMG]

    Dead pedal:

    [​IMG]

    Leather trim on the shifter pod and dashboard:

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Aluminium bars and mesh inserts on the paneling:

    [​IMG]

    R-Pod badge and tow hook on the front of the rig:

    [​IMG]

    Bucket seat fitted to side mounts and seat runners:

    [​IMG]

    Real carbon fibre dashboard:

    4 Neutrik USB ports for ... stuff:

    [​IMG]

    DSD Tilton style pads for the CSP V2's - I can recommend these:

    [​IMG]

    LED lighting fitted in various places (RF controlled):

    Aluminium kick plates and automotive carpet:

    It still needs triple screens ...

    By now: waiting for a Sparco seat (still use the old one from the rSeat)

    I'd love to have a 3-screen setup, but no place for this :( .. waiting for Occulus rift :p

    Well my "rig" and I use that term loosely, has a Thrustmaster T500 and a TH8A shifter, 2 Layne Sim Button boxes, a 7" tablet w/ DashMeterPro gauge pack, a Buttkicker2 attached to my mesh covered office chair. I did go with a BPA-TX-G27 Pedal Adapters by www.leobodnar.com/ that lets me use my G27 pedals with a GTEYE Progressive Brake Spring.

    I have two Tritton 720+ headsets, one for the PC and one for PS3 and eventually PS4. My PC is a Viper box with liquid cooling, push button start, 16Gb of Ram, 2 Terabytes of hard drive, a GTX 780 video card w/ 3Gb of Ram. The main screen is a Vizio 47" 120Hz, the sides are ASUS VG248QE's, also 120Hz.
    Yes, it is better to run same sized screens, but if they are all same Hz, and adjustable up/down manually since it won't work with different tv sizes in the settings. Once I got is adjusted and my eyes adjusted to the difference in size and up/down movement speed, it is unnoticeable after a while. Your brain/eyes adjust. It is minimal anyways on mine. Someday, I might switch to all the same size, but I use them for peripheral vision most of the time, to see around a corner and where the track goes anyways.
