My grandpa has a pretty epic sim setup in his shop, so I went to play some PCars on it today

My grandpa is a mechanic in Monterey California, and since I’m on vacation there for Christmas right now, I went down to his shop to check out his updated sim setup. The new setup was better than I had thought from what he had told me.

My grandpa is a mechanic in Monterey California, and since I’m on vacation there for Christmas right now, I went down to his shop to check out his updated sim setup. The new setup was better than I had thought from what he had told me. He has a full three monitor setup with a heavy duty gaming computer so he can run Project Cars on Ultra settings at high FPS. It also has a racing seat with headphones wrapped around the headrest so that the driver can get the full sound without disturbing the people around them.

The wheel is an AccuForce Pro with Sim Commander, and it has the best force feedback simulation of any wheel I’ve played on. The seating position is great and gives a true feeling of being in a race car. There is also a gated shifter and a setup to rumble the seat when you go over bumps or leave the track. He has had the sim for a while, but he just got these updates this year, and it makes the experience a whole lot better.
