Default Sold this to help pay for my Miata

Sold my Obutto Revolution sim racing/flying cockpit to help pay for my Miata. Still have the PC and monitors and recently picked up a Thrustmaster T500RS with pedals, though I have to mount it to my desk which is annoying. I plan to build a wooden cockpit with plans available from Ricmotech for relatively cheap. The Thrustmaster is definitely better than the G27, I wish I could have used it on the sim rig when I had it.

And a few videos of me driving (badly).

Nice, how do you like the Oculus vs the 3 monitor setup? I had 3 27" for my old sim rig, but I'm hesitant to buy a Rift havnig never used one.

I would never go back to monitors, I still use them on games that support triple wide gaming, but for sim racing or flight/space sim once you try it in VR there's no going back. Unfortunately its one of those things that some people are sensitive to, it would be a good idea to try one out somewhere first.

I'm still using the DK2 version and my GPU's are a bit dated so I haven't been very motivated to race lately.
