    After Gran Turismo came out, the local computer store put up a rig. It was over 7K. Holy crap.

    I bet this cost more than that.

      Racing sims can get crazy. Full wrap around monitors, motion rigs, load cell pedals. You can buy all the same equipment that F1 racing teams use, provided you’re willing to drop six figures.

      That said, there’s some top sim racers that have a Logitech wheel clamped to a desk.
