I'm thinking about making mine out of 1" pipe and then powdercoating it. It's gonna take a bit of engineering to hold my 250lb ass...

For those of you with steering wheels for the game, can you recommend a stand or table to clamp it to? Something small, sturdy, and cheap.
I'm building one of these this weekend...

Where are they located for purchase?
Used car lots. They are only there for 7 days, and each time you buy one it takes one day away, so be ready for them. They reappear after another 694 days. The used cars are all on a set cycle.
How much are they each?

You'll need like $8.5 million to buy them all.

Sounds good. Shouldn't need to much engineering, just strong pipe and maybe some weight on the other side.

Here is my setup:   Whenever I have the chance to sit down and really play, I'll have a chair for back support. One question, anybody know a way to completely turn of force feedback on this wheel? I turned vibration off in the game and that helped some, but with the light weight caterham on the bumpy "ring", it often gets too hard to control because the wheel is going back and forth so much.

Does anyone know how the hell to win a rally in GT4 (or 2 or 3 for that matter). I don't know what I am doing wrong, but I can't win a rally in the dirt or snow for my life!
I'm in the super-duper Toyota rally car that you win from winning the Costa d Amalfi Road Rally (second one down in Special Events). I am against a friggin Toyota Celica street car and I can't beat this guy!
On top of it all, i get penalized 5 seconds every time i bump him, but he can beat the crap out of me and keep going.
What's the secret???
For Sale:
- Sony PSP with a Baseball 2k6 and the movie Crash. $100
- 1973 Karmann Ghia Convertible w/ Auto-Stick. Needs Restoration. $1200 OBO

Easy on the brakes, if tires start spinning short shift. come into the corners slow and accelerate out of them.
