Guy from the first pic here! This picture depicts an experimental rig which was supposed to give me the f1 sitting position experience... Long story I'd rather drag my face across rb9's exhaust than sit there again (still rocking the g29 but with a proper stand!)

11:36 here! That's the MVH Studios F1 style rim for a G29, and yep -- I decided to upgrade to a decent rig frame first and then get a new wheel later on, intending on some Moza gear in a month or two hopefully. Definitely right about feeling more immersed in a rig, feels way better than clamped to a desk and can turn the FFB up higher as a result.

Highly recommend Moza. Have the R6 bundle with the optional clutch pedal and the formula wheel frame added. Updated from the same wheel as you and it’s night and day with how much better of a wheel it is. Hoping you get your hands on one soon brother!

Awesome rig! Glad you're having fun with it. As for upgrades, I vote go pedals first. They get a much bigger return on investment even if it doesn't look as fancy as a dd wheel.

As someone who got a CSL DD first instead of a proper rig, yup, you're right. Clamped to a table is useable but sometimes it's a pain in the ass. Especially the LC brake paired with a rolling chair.

For everyone that has a "wheeley" chair and do sim racing, the fix that I did on my setup was to buy a rubber mat for the floor and it helps prevent the Wheels to move a lot more. In my case was a decathlon Ground Cover mat for a threadmill, it has a rubbery feel. Cheers!

you can also get "sliders" that replace the wheels that are just bits of plastic, moves pretty easily when not in the chair but barely moves when sat in it

it's not just the wheels on desk chairs, it's the swivel too. fighting force feedback can twist you around and effect your pedal pressure and overall wheel control

When I had a wheelchair I would use old socks or a piece of cleaning cloth to lock the wheels, just get it stuck between the wheel and the casing, it's pretty effective.

Jimmer! I have a Corbeau DFX seat and it's super comfy. I could sit in it for hours and nothing hurts. Highly recommend.

Great tip if you race with a pad: Drill into the thumb-pad and superglue a bit of dowel in there, about an inch long. Then get hold of another pad (can be a cheap, broken one), cut one of the thumbpads off, drill out the back of it and glue it onto the bit of dowel. Extending the length of the thumbpad by even half an inch like this increases the fidelity of the controls by a crazy amount and makes it so much easier to do gentle, smooth inputs..

9:52 I HAD THAT EXACT DESK MAT FOR YEARS

Was not expecting to get cleaning tips for my PS3 controller, but thanks anyways Jimmer!

I had to recently update from a G27 to a G923 but I made use of the "rubber band" mod. Longer screws at 9 and 3 o'clock on the shifter, and lots of knicker elastic. Made for an excellent sequential shifter or handbrake.

For those who are building their own rig and aren't bothered with a little work, you could have a comfy seat for sim racing for cheap or an office chair, but that might be a bit more work. Check out used car parts yards for car seats. Just don't go hoping find Bride/Recaro seats for cheap, that's not likely to happen. What you're looking for are commuter cars like a corolla/civic. Go for the passenger seat because it'll likely have less wear and such. From $100 - $300, you've got a cheap/comfortable seat, might want to clean it before use though. Just a warning, the seat might be too tall for premade rigs, take measurements before buying seats. Also, custom brackets may be required.

I used that Ikea table (but in black) with Fanatec CSR weighed down with 2 x 8" hexahonal concrete slabs wrapped in a black bin bag with 42 inch tv on top of the slabs. Seating was a leather passenger seat from an alpha 156 screwed directly to the floor (rack still operational)

That game is Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3. More commonly known as Maxitune.

The secret to wheely chairs is towels wrapped round the wheels - not that I have ever done that before!!

These vids are getting better and better ❤

"Can roast your rig" roasts the room decor instead . Certified jimmer moment

9:35 I did a similar thing but to use my g27 h shifter as an e-brake, where the elastic pulled the shifter forward, and when i went into 4th, it would engage the e-brake. I hadn't thought of the sequential hack, since i had flappy paddle shifters on the wheel.

Need more of these like one a week

The flight stick launch control reminds me of one of the Taxi movies when he jumps the fence. What a film.

There are a lot of cool mods for the G29/G920 these days, I've got magnetic pads for the shift paddles that make it a lot snappier, and I've seen a proper sequential kit for the G29 shifter. It's a fairly permanent change and so I've never invested in it but it's nice to know it exists. I think I've seen a proper mod kit to make the shifter into a handbrake as well.

17:21 That's All Might from My Hero Academia on the poster and the mouse pad/mat could be a Pokemon TCG playmat.

Had a G25 years ago grteat wheel for the time, shifter had a big rotating selector changed it from H to sequential, great bit of kit. When I upgraded to a erm G29 (cant remember) I kept the G25 pedals, they where so much better. Moved on to TM now, next will be DD!

I got a g293. The rubber band trick is genius! It's been a real source of annoyance and removes a lot of the immersion to have the handbrake mapped to a button on the wheel. Will definitely try it on my next rally stint.

"What else you using the VR for?" 😂🤣😂🤣

can we please appreciatie the 1st guy going for 'real' F1 sitting position, feet up and all? dis was fun

This is less roasting of rigs, and more roasting of people's desks/rooms 😆

Finaly! my favorite series!

Love this series Jimmer :)

The most shocking thing about these rigs for me is that so many of the shifters were on the left. As a simple mainland European dude right-hand drive fries my brain.

I had the same ikea table the first rig had. With the beanbag chair for good back support

Lmao the last image with the shifter, did something like that with a hair tie on mine for a handbrake.

i like the old wheels that do creative mods to them, like the g29 with f1 style wheel and the sequential or handbrake trick on g27. nice

10:10 - Scraping shit out of the cracks in controllers, remotes and anything else electrical that you hold is one of my favourite things in the world. You have to let it build up a little bit though to achieve maximum satisfaction.

I love these vids Jimmy!

the dualshock setup reminded me - before i got my wheel i tried using the gyro on my DS4. works absolutely shockingly well, would make a fun video if you tried it out. you'll honestly be surprised, it's a pain holding your arms up but the actual input is really smooth and accurate

17:27 those half life noises 🔥 love the edits

Mad respect to the person with the Kackiest Kacky wallpaper, wonder if they drive TM with that wheel as well

I would love if you’d make a video on viewers evolutions of their rigs, would certainly send in pictures from my various rigs I’ve had over the years. Mine is certainly not finnished yet though.

Is that an R4 song I hear on the Mono portion? Man I knew this channel was something special

I've used a computer chair for sim racing for years now. Its fine as long as the chair is on carpet that way you don't move as easily.

I took the wheels off a comfy office chair. Stopped it moving, and made the seat a few inches lower.

Need to bring this back😂

had a wheel on my desk for some time and man i managed to have nothing work properly. shifter always came sliding of the table though it was screwed as hard as possible and my chair and pedals kept moving in seperate ways. good times

I have a t300 on an antique table, that has no space to take the 'leg' part of the wheelbase, so I had to DIY a metal plate and a few wooden panels, that the wheel keeps suspended in front of the table, which in return keeps the wheel attached... hack job, but sufficient for my non existent skills :D

18:59 oh god... my first ever racing wheel

max tune is such a good game

I have a Toyota Cressida drivers side seat with lumbar and all other normal movements. Plus it is extra comfortable!

My sim rig is a G29 attached to a £16 Argos desk with supports removed so when the wheel turns left, so does the desk. I then sit in a wheeled chair, so hard braking is a fun experience - I use an exercise bike jammed between my chair and bed to keep things in place, which almost kind of works. Oh and I'm plugged into an ethernet cable that's taped to my door. Not much point roasting that really. Still drives straighter than my real car though...

3:45 What I've done with this kind of chair is I've removed the wheels.

Watching this made me really miss my rig, its nothing special a g29 with peddles and shifter on a foldable/collapsible rig I got on Amazon, usually sat on a garden chair as it was the only one we had that was the right size lol, unfortunately had to move out and now it's just folded up in the corner of a spare room as I don't have space to use it anymore.
