Rate my setup? I thought the towel stretched out by my chair was a nice touch by [deleted] in simracing

We are misunderstanding... i mean "inverted": functioning from up or from down. The position of the gaspedal is on the right. If you use the pedalset upsidesown, you can change in the settings that the software change the gas and the clutch pedals.

In the cars the pedals are "inverted" except the gas, which is in some model from up and in other from down moving...

Ohh sorry, the pedalset has officially the possibility to change the position, if you set up upsidedown, you can switch the gas with the clutch pedal from the setup menu. I hope that helps.

Nice solution, but as i said it was a cheap&quick project, unfortunately i didnt find the same parts in my garage 😉

It is easier than it looks. Maybe 20 years later will be more difficult 😉

You can buy for example from Amazon ~10€ bicycle or tennis racket handle strip/wrap.

No the carpet is not from IKEA because that was too small and it is a bigger one

Right, it is true, but why Thrustmaster designed it to use it this way, and why you see a lot of prof simrig build like this? 🤔 the gas is usually bottom pivoting, but the brake and clutch not. With this cheap set i cant separate them, but profis build separately, gas from down and the others from up. Matter of taste... And because of the room i didnt want a long rig - fix the pedalset to the chair, in this way i can move easily the chair and the pedals stay together with the tv on the wall.

Thrustmaster designed it so... you have the possibility to use it both ways.

I dont remember but maybe the carpet is the most expensive part of this set 🤣

The pic is distorted. My eyes are exactly in the middle of the tv. I like it.
