      Nothing noticeable while playing, no. I can feel my super burly main rig flex if I'm sitting there and trying to feel something. But while driving and normal use, you won't feel things moving unless you are doing things to purposely feel flex like pushing and pulling on the wheelbase or something weird.

    • @DouglasThompson
      @DouglasThompson  8 місяців тому

      As for a seat, I don't know if it would be a good idea structurally but I always considered a used or free gaming chair. Take off the rolling portion and build a sub frame underneath and attatch it to the frame. I'm not sure it could handle heavy braking but if your pedals are something like csl pedals or thrustmaster/logitech pedals it would definitely handle that.

      @@brandonwilson4408 it's certainly possible to use a regular seat out of any car but from my experience, they are asymmetrical, as you said, if you have the tools and the mechanical ability to adapt it to a rig, it s certainly a great way to save a ton of money and more than likely have a more comfortable sim rig. Many racing seats are built for comfort second to holding you where you need to be as you already know. :)
