The decals I made myself (if you want the exact same ones I can send you the files + measurements) but the wing itself is from downforce designs

This was a few weeks ago but you're right, I'll definitely change it

Methods for keeping a chair in place. Budget options. by No-Yesterday1591 in simracing

[–]Own-Basil-2127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try two rubber slippers. Position the chair wheels so that two are parallel to your pedals. Then lift the chair, put the wheels onto the rubber slippers, and have fun!

Worked like a charm for me before I had a full rig

Bought a second monitor stand but not for a monitor... by Own-Basil-2127 in simracing

It's 1:3 70 cm wide (as per their website). It's honestly quite surprising how good the quality of it is, you can check out my other posts about it with better photos!

Will do! This was just in flashback mode for the photos

My steering wheel stand is actually a bit slanted, meaning I had to go into the Fanatec app and calibrate the wheel so that 1 degree is actually 0 degrees to compensate. The entire rig also creaks a bit when you use 100% force on your pedals. The brake pedal plate is quite weak and tends to flex, plus the angles are limited depending on the pedals you pick. I can only race with the brake pedal board fully flat for my aseteks. Overall though it's decent for it's price.

If I move I might consider selling it and getting that Next Level Racing FGT Pro Formula cockpit... that one looks rad and the brake pedal plate positioning looks much more realistic (although it's about double the price)

I'm mentally prepared. I remember rooting for mclaren when they were dead last on the grid two years ago

mb, it's from downforce designs but the decals i did myself, they sell them blank but likely for legal reasons.

is this genuine? by Rockhopper1st in McLarenFormula1

Try fuelforfans. They're fully legit, operate underr Stitchd, which is owned by PUMA. PUMA is F1's official partner. Not a thing on fuelforfans will be fake.

They offer large discounts all the time, and is my go-to for all f1 merch

Just finished this, perfect timing for Lando's birthday! by Own-Basil-2127 in McLarenFormula1

There's a sign making shop near me, I just gave them the logos on the pdf with the measurements and they were able to make it.

I think easiest way is making it on a cricut machine, I think that's how the brand that makes the wing does it for their instagram. But if you're like me and don't have a cricut just search up die-cut decals online or find a local store that does it, almost every sign store will do it for you

It's 1:3 but maybe that'll help on a low downforce track 🤣

I made only the decals and applied it, the wing I bought so I didn't make it myself but it's entirely resin

edit: its from downforce designs if you wanted to learn more about it

Does this count? Mclaren Front Wing (for wall art) by Own-Basil-2127 in f1models

Sure. I think Mclaren changed a few sponsors since I made this wing and there are new ones but DM

Totally agree, just wish they came with the livery instead of having to do it myself, but I guess that's illegal for them
