So I picked up a G27 and hopefully will find some time to play it and GT6. Anyone else play on here?
If you have any recommended settings I'd appreciate it. I haven't played in close to a year, just setup the G27 last night, selling my old DFGT wheel. Of course, the updates for GT6 literally took hours, so I didn't even get a chance to play it last night..
My "rig" is pretty weak (homemade wheel stand). Hopefully one day I'll "upgrade" to a nicer setup..

Of course you need 3 displays to get full immersion.

I'm pretty sure that would just make me vomit all over myself.

Nice setup! How big are those screens they look big?! Is that iracing?
Unfortunately I want to keep my "rig" semi portable (as you can tell by the mat the stand is sitting on) since I can't dedicate space to it yet. Maybe in a few years I'll have the space but not for a while. Any tips/recommendations on keeping the pedals from moving? I guess an angled platform would be best w/ the pedal assembly screwed to it?

Yea, a bunch of us have a wheel set up. We need to get a racing night set up.

That wheel stand looks very compact.. is it pretty stable when in use? It looks like it folds away/up nicely which makes it easy to stow away. Maybe picking up one of these would be the smarter move than my mickey mouse stand..

2 43" plasma's and a 42" in the middle. I have a modded playseat setup which holds the wheel and pedals.
I changed the seat to the passenger seat out of my Z06, I had to bolt the entire assy to a piece of wood to get it stable. I will take some pics later. Its been a on-going thing since about 2006.

I have a Fanatec CSR wheel, with a wheel stand pro and a folding chair. The chair gets pretty uncomfortable, but I can hid it all away to make my wife happy.

My future plans are to make a rig out of an S2000 seat one day if we ever move someplace that has more space.

Wow, I had no idea GT6 had multiple monitor support. A quick trip to google and it says you need a ps3 for each screen.. 
Ah well, not like I have the space for it anyway.. Slick setup for sure! Definitely would love to see pics.

I hear you on the last sentence. One day I'll build a rig, maybe like gfacter's.
My DIY wheel stand is actually really stable and wasn't too expensive (well, it did take time), so I know I could build a decent rig if I had some more space for not too much $.

I've had a G27 for a few years but only used it like once. Just don't have anywhere to set it up and it is impossible to play with on your lap. I should probably sell the thing. Anyone interested??
