Mancave_Racecar: The Tour!

[@PunkPandaMunk]

I was here for 🥃 4:27 😂 That’s the beauty of sim racing, you can drink and drive safely in your own home 😅 Nice setup, thanks for sharing 👍

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Haha! Absolutely! Thanks for watching!

[@EvilijoUK]

I love the sofa with a whisky shelf just arms-length away, well done bud, really classy timeless set-up.

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Thanks so much!

[@SpeedFreak919]

Very impressive. Well done!

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Thank you very much!

Thanks a lot! Appreciate you giving it a watch!

[@AntoineSammut-n5k]

Clean set up 👍🏼

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Thank you!

[@cbobroy]

Anyway to get more info on the fan setup you use. That’s something I have been looking for.

[@Mancave_Racecar]

I’m using some 120mm fans I picked up on Amazon. I 3D printed an adapter with built in air straightener to attach a 3” tube to them. I went with the particular tube I used because it holds its shape.

Damn that setup looks 🔥🔥🔥

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Thank you bro!

[@TrampyPegasus]

Beautiful setup brother

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Thanks so much!

[@gwenndolynnmecklenburg6457]

wow wish my girlcave looks like this 😍

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Haha! It’s never too late!

[@danielnewmanracing]

😍😍😍😍

[@williamschultz6235]

I love the GT3 dash setup. I'd like to do something similar but worry about my dbox throwing it right into the monitors under hard braking 😅

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Hahahaha. Just gotta find a good way to mount it!

[@ajkay2444]

Amazing room man! How did you do the led COTA on the wall?

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Thanks so much! I designed the track with a channel I could slip the Govee LED light into and 3D printed it. It’s like 20 individual pieces I stuck to the wall with some 3M wall tape.

[@DSaw78]

I've been wanting a GSI wheel for a while (among a few others but every sim wheel is $$$). I keep reading thoughts about they are too big, well feel too big. Wish there was a way I could try one before spending that much and then not liking it. My gen 1 Ascher F64 almost feels too small though so maybe a GSI would fit me better. Badass setup though! Hope mine can come close to that eventually.

[@Mancave_Racecar]

The HP1 is a bit on the large side but it still feels great for F1/GTP/LMP racing. I really like it, but I loooooooove the X29. The width is much smaller and it feels amazing for GT. Super light and nimble. I absolutely love the X29

[@10mmGR]

if you have a micro center near you they sometimes have rigs on display and use the gsi wheels on them.

[@ice_manz6721]

Unreal setup man! What lighting did you use on those wall-mounted helmets to back-light them?

[@Mancave_Racecar]

They’re just a couple of photography lights I have. They don’t actually live there, I just used em to make the video cooler. Haha. VIJIM VL120 RGB Video Light,... www.amazon.com/dp/B08Z3BQYM1?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

[@evanlanier6891]

Nice rig! I gotta ask tho, what kinda nvgs are you rockin on the helmet?

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Those are DTNVS’s.

[@evanlanier6891]

@@Mancave_RacecarAwesome, congrats on the setup

[@Mancave_Racecar]

@@evanlanier6891 thanks!

[@GunghoMarine83]

Your wall color is exactly what I have been searching for. What shade of Matt’s black is that?

[@Mancave_Racecar]

It is called peppercorn from Sherwin Williams paint.

[@BlueAlphaBelts]

10/10 would do a sleepover here.

[@Mancave_Racecar]

10/10 would snuggle in your sleeping bag. 😉

[@benjisyt]

How did you your roof for the rig in the thumbnail photo! ❤

[@Mancave_Racecar]

It’s just a piece of 1/4 inch MDF board that I painted black, wrapped with carbon fiber vinyl and set on top of my monitors.

[@benjisyt]

@Mancave_Racecar simple and does the job nice bud!

[@Mancave_Racecar]

@@benjisyt exactly!

[@Tosirius727]

Where did you get the surrounding piece for your dashboard?

[@Mancave_Racecar]

Made it myself. It’s just some foam board with carbon fiber vinyl. The brim of the dash is 3D printed and wrap in alcantara.

[@Tosirius727]

@Mancave_Racecar looks great

[@Mancave_Racecar]

@@Tosirius727 thanks!

[@AndreaTrocino]

Man, don't drink and drive 😂

[@Mancave_Racecar]

🤣🤣

[@MetalSimVR]

Hey, nice you showed this all. But where is your clutch?

[@Mancave_Racecar]

No clutch yet. I plan to get one eventually but nearly all of the driving I do (GT3 and GTP) does not require a clutch.

[@MetalSimVR]

@@Mancave_Racecar Ah yes, makes sense. You are one of those mainstream-drivers. You don´t know what you miss if you could drive a Porsche 917K with clutch, heel & toe. Well...

[@jacksondyal6823]

@@MetalSimVR buddy no one cares about your clutch superiority. most of us drive manual sports cars in real life and would rather drive competitively in the sim

[@Nudelsuppe-u5f]

🤌🏽🏆🤩✅

[@jufejufinho]

Nice little mancave, this would be impressive a while ago, now this is like the 1000th video showing the same thing.

[@jasonhodgson2528]

Just curious how did you get the “ Lovely Pitwall “ on your TV please @Mancave_Racecar

[@Mancave_Racecar]

I do it the same way you would wirelessly with your cell phone.

[@jasonhodgson2528]

@@Mancave_Racecar So you use your web browser on your tv?, sorry newbie with this stuff!!

[@Mancave_Racecar]

@ that’s correct! Just use the browser and punch in the IP that SimHub tells you to use.
