Hi. I'm looking to purchase the plans for usage with Gran Turismo 3. What are some thoughts as to the ease of building and the durability of the hardware? http://www.racebasecockpit.com/ Also, does anyone have their plans lying around? I would be more than happy to purchase them from you. The plans list for $35USD... or $69Australian. How much for shipping, for those of you who have bought them? Thanks for any input...

I ordered a Racebase cockpit a few months ago I never really received any proper confirmation of my order, I emailed them and received a reply that there was a "rather long lead time for the wide body seat" (I'm sort of tall & wide!) but I received no reply when I asked how long it would roughly be. So in summary I would not order anything from this VERY UNPROFESSIONAL COMPANY. "Linh Tran" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

They also attempt to claim a software like "licence" to the plans and demand a seperate set of plans be purchased for each unit made. I'd bloody well like to see them try to enforce that in a court of law, especially across national boundries. The plans are copyrighted and cannot be distributed, but the knowledge they impart is not enforcable intellectual property. What's more the "ip" is clearly a knock off of the Hyperstim design and thus questionably "theirs" in the first place. I won't have anything to do with these people and advise that noone else does either, lest this sort of nonsense spreads. Can you tell I feel fairly strongly about this issue? KFG KFG
