Custom Sim Rig Jaag Race

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
