It's a bit steep for the wheel + pedals, but if you wanna play you gotta pay ;) Luckily the buy-in just for an xbox and forza 4 is pretty reasonable compared to PC gaming.<br /><br />On the PC there are other titles that are supposed to be really sim-focused. There is iRacing, a subscription-based game, Live for Speed, a poor-man's racing sim, and probably many others. Richard burns rally, while a bit dated, is apparently the defacto rally simulator. <br /><br />You probably have the skills and tools to make your own cockpit! Used car seat, some welding and some square tubing and you're on your way :) Here is a link with someone using a free recumbent bike stand as the beginning of their play set. <br /><br />http://tweak3d.net/forums/showthread.php?36342-Homemade-racing-game-cockpit-fabrication-(Project-Ghetto-Playseat)<br /><br />Let us know how you make outDan D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02435083694821688856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1469836871847319144.post-60643767736313837162011-11-07T20:11:53.960-07:002011-11-07T20:11:53.960-07:00Wow!

It was built by and made for automotive addictionist like yourself!!! My favorite thing about the game was doing a sideways burnout at 120 mph in my supercharged ZO6 Corvette when I hit the throttle! It is ridiculously fun for someone who will never be able to do that in real life. It is as realistic as a simulator can get. I think they are up to Forza Motorsports 4 now for X-Box 360.
