I built a VR Racing Sim for UNDER $1,000!

The moral of the story here is to start with what you've got- if you wait until you have the ultimate setup, you'll never get started.

Sim Racing is an especially expensive hobby when you consider that you're playing the same games as they exist on Xbox or Playstation, just in a much more expensive way- so it's hard to justify spending big bucks on sim racing especially when you're just getting started, as each component can easily fetch 4 figures on a high end setup.

So, I decided I still wanted to experience racing games in a proper way with a racing wheel and pedals, racing seat, and immersive VR headset- but as cheaply and as simply as possible.

A great thing about the Curv sim cockpit is its affordability.

when you pulled out that water bladder i thought you were about to say you got a catheter so you didn’t have to get up to pee 😹😹😹

I build my own rig with aluminium profiles and old office chair. The best part is that you don't need to build anything complicated. I live in a flat so my construction capabilities are very limited.
Also own build rig is very flexible to changes and new additions.
I started with a wheel stand (foldable one) and office chair with flip flops under wheels to make it not ride away \(￣︶￣*\))

Please drop your asseto corsa presets graphics settings. You can upload presets. I pretty much have the same pc specs and setup but with hp reverb g2. But I get pretty low fps. I really only play no hesi.

I’ve been struggling to find a way of using my Oculus 2 and a pc for sim racing. Can you explain the process of what to buy to use the Oculus and how to hook it up. I also have a wheel with pedals that work on my PS 4. I have Asseto Corsa and love playing on my 65”, but I’m looking for that immersive experience vr has to offer. Thank you so much for the realistic point of view!
