RaceRock - The Configuration
What´s in it, what it´s about?
The configuration of the RaceRock is pretty simple.
For the rig I use 40x40mm and 80x40mm aluminium profiles, that are (nearly invisible) screwed together with special connection links. The adjustment of the distance between seat / wheel and wheel / pedals is possible with a few simple touches.
For a better hold, I screw the wheel directly together with the aluminium profile.
For new wheels there is possibly a loss of warranty, cause I need to open the wheel-base and have to drill wholes in it.
Alternatively a Dibond-plate can be used, on which the wheel can be fixed with its original bracket.
As seat-console a console of FK automotive is used. It is easy, stable and holds most of the seats without problems, but it still has to be prepared, so that it can be fixed with the rig.
For the seat I produce special rails, in case of that the width of the seat is too big or too small.
The seating itself is also from FK automotive. It offers the usual possibilities of adjusting the seat-back and can be be moved forward and backward. It's also possible to mount any other seat on this console (e.g. I had requests for RaceRocks with seats of Honda CRX and Accord TypeR).
As a special delicacy the MK1_v2 is equipped with a FFB function (Force Feedback).
Therefore I use a 85 watt basskicker with a separate bass amplifier. The basskicker is screwed with the seat in a special position, at which the connection must be extremly robust to not clang and clack instead of vibrating soundless while driving over a curb.
The amplifier for the kicker has to be connected with the hifi-system (pre-out) or directly with the PC (line-out) and is fixed to the seat-console at an easy accessible position.
The treshold filter is adjustable and makes sure, that only particular frequencies are transmitted, so that the kicker does e.g. not work when a deep voice appears.
