hello,

I just bought an xbone and forza5, and forza horizon deux and the new release of gtav.

Yes , I'm gonna sell my old 360 with all these games and more on the classified.

I would like to buy a real racing wheel, money is no object, but I need a racing rig that is foldable because the gf will probably file for divorve if I bring something as big as the threadmill I just forced her to sell.

I may ask my father to help build a homemade one, but I need a plan.

Anyone can help ?

These guys take racing rigs real seriously. Plus they are probably more help than me.

don't think Fanatec made a wheel that works for Xbox One, but I know Thrustmaster has a couple, and Madcatz is the flagship wheel.

I would actually pay for that plan, you should market it.

madcatz, really ?

In my souvenir, madcatz products kinda sucked, maybe it changed.
