Low Fuel Motorsport | Biggest platform for competitive SimRacing in ACC and AC
this might be worth looking at amRam, I've just started hearing a lot about 'LFM' in the last few months and it's apparently the next best thing to iRacing for multiplayer now, and it doesn't have the same painful pricing model
I own both AC and ACC (have barely touched AC and only a little ACC)
when are you getting your rig? :>

that's really cool, I can see that being fun in its way 
i find it fascinating that some people also sim/rp being air traffic controllers, that must be fun to learn about too
I'm pretty sure there is a TW fable of Strega MSFlight simming a big old 747 or something and ending up with naptown as his co-pilot
you can guess the end to that story

you can guess the end to that storythis isn't mine, but this pic shows how easy it is to have a hybrid rig – you just need a flight sim throttle that has a rocker switch for the rudder, so that you don't need rudder pedals. Or one of those gay twisty sticks if preferred.
I don't quite have space to add stuff to mine atm, but it's definitely going to happen in the future

He's a flight sim nerd. Like, commercial airliner nerd. Doing boring ass flights between large city airports. He thinks starting a 737 from cold/dark is fun
Gotta get him VR, it would blow his mind for sure
MS flight sim with VR is amazing.
Nice. I spent tons of time on the nordschleife in GT and Forza can't wait to do it with a proper sim setup
I played a lot of racing/car sims 20 years ago. I found generally the more realistic, the harder and less fun. For example, high speed on asphalt nice, but just touching the grass and all hell breaks loose.. so in those games, the maps with barriers were better. Generally I preferred the rally games like Colin McCrae as they just seemed like more fun.
Flight sims I still play DCS occasionally. I fly a Blackshark which is an old Russian single seat attack helicopter. DCS is high realism, but again.. a slide down the scale slightly closer to 'arcade' is often more fun.
For flight sims, and you can do it in car sims, I use a Headtracker (I got off Slinky) and triple monitors. I don't have VR, but the headtracker is great for flight sims and you can just move your head a little to see all the instrument panels.
For the most basic car sims, I've preferred a wheel with analog levels for break/gas as the foot pedals just give me the shits sitting at a desk.
Generally I find car race sims tiring.. they tire me out more than a FPS.
