HOW TO BUILD A COCKPIT FOR GRANDPRIX II

This is page is for Grand Prix II addicted people who want to feel realsensations while riding their F1. I'm Guillaume Lafargefrom France, Paris, Meudon. Please send comments or question to gcl@club-internet.fr.

To build this cockpit, you'll need wood boards, screws for wood, andtools of course. I made this cockpit to fit my analog wheel MAD CATS which uses also analog pedals, with changing gear on the wheel, like F1s. You'll be able to ajust the site of the pedalsin function of the lengh of your legs, so it allows any people to fit thecockpit. You have buttons on the wheel to change gears etc...

You can buy the analog wheel and pedals included for about 500 frenchfrancs = US $100 in any computer shop. I think it is very worth.
