Anyone use this $300 bucket seat with chassis and mounts for your wheel and
pedals?  I just saw it in Autoweek. www.bobearlracing.com   I guess you are
sitting on the floor in an authentic reclining formula position.  My
question is what do you do with your monitor-- or do you have 8 foot
projection screens to use this?  Any other feedback?

I use a racing seat but have my pedals and seat raised so its at normal
height for my monitor on my desk.

Ya probably around $100 or but depends on the seat.  That looks like a
$50-75 one.  My seat alone was $300CDN.  You get what you pay for but I
agree you can build one yourself for much cheaper, just a matter of having
the time and the skills.
