I really wish I had room for a simrig. Now that I have a load cell brake pedal my chair on wheels pushes back. And my wheel pulls off the desk so at least once a lap I have to push it back on and pull myself forward.

It's a Trak Racer TR8 Mach 3.

I did look into the 8020 stuff but it just seemed like overkill for my needs.

Maybe you need to move to a bigger country. We've got loads of room here.

All problems that I've solved to varying degrees with the Patent Pending Strap-On Cockpit and Pedal Box.
