I haven't seen anybody on here with the GT Omega Art Racing Sim Cockpit and I thought I would post a couple pictures and give you a few impressions.
This is it here: http://usa.gtomegaracing.com/gt-omega-racing-driving-simulator-cockpits/art-racing-simulator-cockpit
I am using this setup with by Xbox One and Forza 6, along with a Thrustmnaster TX racing wheel, Thrustmaster T3PA Pro pedals and TH8A shifter.
I previously had a playseat which I liked, but I didn't like the TV setup that the playseat company made, and I didn't like the home built monitor stand that I had. I also thought the seat was kind of uncomfortable after a while. So, I decided to buy myself a new racing simulator setup that would incorporate the TV stand with the chair, and I really liked what I saw online of the GT Omega Art Cockpit because it had exactly what I wanted and even had an optional console tray. I saw online they even make a little add on for a Buttkicker, so I might grab that next.
I think my favorite part of the GT Omega setup is the sturdiness of it. My playseat stand, for the steering wheel specifically, would move around under heavy usage. It is clear that the GT Omega setup is far more robust and solid. It also has a much better seat, and I don't even have the optional seat you can get.
Anyways, I thought you would like to see the setup, and compare it with the playseat.
For the money, I would just skip the playseat and get the GT Omega. It is clearly superior. And I don't have any strange bars going through my legs anymore.
I love having the TV right in front of me now.
I keep this setup in the area under the stairs going to my basement. I like being able to close it off and away so guests don't touch it, or even know its there.
And the old setup for comparison sake
