    What is your setup?

    Just curious what you guys run with when racing. Do you have a racing chair and everything or do you just go w/ a standard wheel and pedals, while sitting on the sofa.

    Just trying to get some ideas. I have the 360 wireless wheel, but it really sucks, sitting w/ it on your lap, it's just everywhere.

    Would like to get a good wheel for the PS3, for GT. Not sure if I want the stick shifter G25, do they sell just the wheel and pedals?

    Anyways, pics would be cool!

    Driving Force GT wheel and pedals.

    I built a beefed up version of a sawhorse table to clamp my wheel to. Wider table top, legs are out further so it wont wobble when I steer and its easy to store if you need to. I'll get some pictures up sometime this week

        All I use is a Logitech Momo wheel and pedals. The wheel clamps onto my desk, and the pedals are underneath on the floor. My chair is a high-back office chair.

        Nothing fancy, but it gets the job done...

        *edit* Here's a pic:

            Steve:

            The G25 is sold only as a complete package: Wheel, pedals, shifter.

            Honestly, I think the G25 is overkill for GT5. Get a Driving Force GT for half the price unless you're serious about PC sims. Very good wheel for the money.

            I use a Logitech Driving Force Pro clamped to my work desk, with pedals underneath, for iRacing.

            Take care,

              I have a logitceh G25 and a playseat evolution. It's very light weight and easy to move from in front of the tv to the pc

                I have a Logitech MOMO that I clamp to the computer desk. Excellent wheel...I wish it would work for PS3. I use the controller for F1: CE, and DiRT. I have a dinky wheel for original Xbox that I hate.

                  If I am not mistaken Bro...I think the Momo will work on the PS3 for GT5. It just doesn't work for F1..etc..etc..

                    I would go with the wheelstandpro for use with the 360 wheel. It's also compatible with the G25 wheel which is only sold bundled w/ pendals/shifter. However, the G27 is coming out soon, so you may want to look into that. The simarcingtonight guys have some reviews on wheels and chairs at their site.
