Your 'cockpits'?
Discussion
Luckily, I am already married, so have retired my penis for life. Ha ha!
The shifter was made by a bloke in france, its a one off. I'm sure he could make you another, though. Good bit of kit, it feels like a gated shifter (as that's what is inside the box), a bit like a ferrari or something. Takes a while to get used to, but feels much more 'real' than the G25's shifter. It's similar to the Frex shifter, http://www.frex.com/gp/shifter/index.htm , although clearly more home-made looking

Funnily enough there's a conversation about this over on the Focus forum at the moment..!
I recently bought a G25 but can't seem to get Test Drive Unlimited to 'see' reverse gear on the shifter. It sees it as 6th gear, even though the gearstick obviously goes down and back, rather than back into 6th. Is this normal or is mine not working right?

Mine developed that fault about 2 months before breaking completely.I recently bought a G25 but can't seem to get Test Drive Unlimited to 'see' reverse gear on the shifter.

Download the LFS demo and have a go with that. Or just use the logitech software to see what buttons are being pushed. Should be seperate buttons for R and 6.

Thanks Altrezia.

Here is mine, it hasn't been used for a while though due to a torn cartilage in my right knee. The wheel is a DFP with a Frex button box and paddle shifter upgrade, fitted to a racecraft wheel. The race frame is a BRD pro with bucket seat, along with a set of Speed7 pedals the screens are driven by a single 8800GT through a Matrox TH2G

Just thought I would put up a few making of pictures. Enjoy.








And I only got a B for that, yet people say that A levels are getting easier
.
P.S. The shot with the angle grinder was only a mock shot for the camera, it needed to be properly secure to cut it, and some other nice cockpits there to, like the idea of that seat, I based mine around a kart chassis type layout, hence the seat and frame design.
