Rhody Sim Racing

Dinging the sign post in Forza Horizon 5.

Hand brake at the Grand Hotel hairpin.

I'm still working out a few bugs in the big sim rig set up but for now here is the first race it is debuting with. The ride of choice is a 1966 Jaguar XJ13 sporting a 502hp 5.0L V12. I eat one wall while getting a hang of the setup. The setup is a custom built rig. The platform was build like a deck, but running every 12 inches rather than 16. I layed 3/4 plywood down and build the frame out of pine 2x3's to keep cost down. The upholstery was upholstery from Amazon and all season carpets from Lowes. The seats are from Summit Racing, and dash buttons utilized from a DIY arcade kit. The monitor screen in the dash is a cheapo 7" raspberry pi screen from Amazon. Here's the rest of the spec list: - 3 55" 4K TV's - Fanatec CSL Elite Wheel Base with Wheel - Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V3 Inverted - Thrustmaster TH8S H-Shifter - Generic USB Handbrake Thank you to all my followers old and new, and if you haven't, make sure to hit the follow button so you don't miss any Rhody Sim Racing content.

Welcome to the maiden voyage, in a VW Golf. I leave my home base in Albania and head for Istanbul. Nice thing about a car on these roads is I can get places much quicker then the lumbering trucks. ETS2 Grand Tour is a video series that follows my journey exploring as much of the Eurotruck Sim2 map as possible.

I'm going to stick to cars from across the pond. Enjoy! Not a Sim Racer is for those of us who just want to drive and listen to music. Sometimes I race, sometimes I just drive. This is quite the project using 3 55" 4K TV's for the Nvidia surround feature with my 3090gpu. Sim rig is the GT Omega Titan with the Fanatec CSL DD, WRC Wheel, CSL V2 Pedals, and Clubsport 1.5 Shifter.

The week comes to an end as I showcase the newest experiment. I moved the center TV onto a 24" extendable mount so that it comes right up against the Fanatec DD. This way when I look around I have a more encompassing view. Of course tweaks are needed, but I find if I don't just get out there and get it done video wise, it'll never get done. I'm also using a new piece of hardware, the GoPro 9 Black. I set it to the super wide mode to capture the wheel along with the three screens. Definitely need to do some wire housekeeping. I take an old Alfa Romeo out for a quick race. Thanks again for watching, following, and tell your friends to help get this channel off the launch pad.

Following the Logitech 920e POV cam, I want to try out my GoPro Hero 4 that had been collecting dust. Utilizing a clamp and cheap GoPro accessories, I built a camera mount for my helmet. Here is the end result. I do a quick race in Forza Horizon 4 that does get cut off at the end, but the video is more a "if I can" than anything else. The only issue I keep running into is crappy audio capture using the Elgato 4K60. Overall I was very happy with the experiment. I achieve a POV view that, with work, could look much better and deepen the viewer's experience. Now on my punch list is to grab an old arm mount for the TV and move the center TV forward 12-18" allowing better surround for the footage. Also, maybe move some overhead LED lighting I have by my bench to alleviate the contrast dilemma for the camera. Thanks for watching and give a follow.

I may have to go with an aver 315, but here is the test of a Logitech 920e head mounted camera with Fora Horizon 5. I finally figured out what was throwing the errors and it was that $85 cheap hand brake from Amazon. Definitely avoid that junk at all costs.

Forza Horizon 4 is one of my favorites in the series. I had just about bought everything in the game, so it had gotten stale. I deleted all my progress and started from the beginning again. I'm using the series X today since I'm still trying to sort out why my PC version isn't recognizing the Fanatec stuff. Not a Sim Racer is for those of us who just want to drive and listen to music.

Welcome to the first test run video for Not a Sim Racer. Utilizing the Nvidia Surround Technology, 3 4K televisions are set up around the driver for a more immersive racing experience. So why the channel name? Well, I'm not a real big fan of track racing and prefer just cruising and racing on surface roads. This was a quick upload to show the progress on the setup. A few modifications have been made since this was filmed yesterday and it involved taking the capture PC of the same circuit as the gaming PC. I was getting ridiculous slow down on the gaming PC for I'm starting with the obvious and working out to fix it. Thanks for watching and give a follow so I can do some livestreaming (Rumble requires 5 followers). https://www.patreon.com/notasimracer
