“I don’t invest in gear, I invest in my happiness” that says it all :)

Some of my friends play football or cricket, but I drive fake race cars in my bedroom and I love it. 🏎🏎🏎

“I don’t invest in gear, I invest in my happiness”, just that.

As a simracer for 15 years, and track marshal for 3, we are all one big family

Don’t even try to explain that to people who are not part of sim racing. For us sim racers it’s a dream to have a rig like those guys. As you said my gears just make me HAPPY. It’s a feeling only sim racers can understand.

One that should be up there or an honorable mention is Mixed Reality Sim Racing. VR headset w/ camera on the headset & facing him, then fully wrapped green screen w/ cutouts for his wheel, shifter, and button box. This allowed him to race in VR while seeing his real hands, wheel, etc and look behind him to see out the back of the car. And the second camera would record his real body in the drivers seat.

I'm quite "late to the market" (started at 63 years of age last year. My motivation is reversing the feeling of deteriorating memory. Think about it, if you want to improve your time in time trials (Rally) you have to get to know every bump and rock.So in terms of braintraining this beats playing memory with my grandkids. Did some 800 hours last year during which I got myself a Sim Lab rig on which I bolted a seat from a Smart obtained from our local junk yard. PS4, single screen (but a good one), Thrustmaster T300RS, shifter and handbrake. My brain is doing better, memory seems to pick up nicely, and my times are improving, sometimes reaching the top 50 in the total ranking. Hope to be here and share with the community of e-racers for a long time. I love this channel

Your passion is beautiful, the way your share it is personal

04:50 Couldn't have said it better 👍 ❤️

Aside from all the fancy gear and setups, I must say by far out of many simracers I follow, you seem to have the most humble approach to this hobby. Sharing your passion and setups in your own unique way is why I keep coming back to view your channel. You have a very special way of communicating to your audience and love for the simsport. Makes me feel that I'am like I'm not alone or crazy that Iam deeply invested in such a great hobby that makes us happy. Keep it up and hope one day I will race you on the virtual track!

Wow, just wow. Super honoured to be featured in one of your videos, you are a true inspiration and the main reason I pushed my project forward. Awesome collection of rigs, ideas and inspiration. Thank you so much! Keep investing in your happiness!.

4:19 well said, (it's not all about speed) happiness, fun, emersion and quality of life improvements matter too 🙂

I am an absolute fan of your channel en to be honest, I tried to copy your rig and I bet i am not the only one. I could not imagine that I wil ever stop simracing an I am in my 50ties now. Keep up the good work.

The love of racing beautiful Riggs passion makes all the difference

"HAPPIENESS" is the best investment of all. Thank you for being you! Love Love Love this videos beginning and your HAPPY place studio SIM-RIG-ROOM. Congratulations on winning all them i-Racing trophies, May you win many more. Cheers from Western Australia

After buying my first sim rig in 2017 and inevitably ending up with an extrusion rig, I too have arrived at this point. Just bought a heap of PVC piping, race nets, clips, buckles, straps, rivets etc etc. Hopefully I can replicate a similarly immersive experience, that's the intention anyway. Wish me luck!

Not disagreeing with your list and I’m glad you did this. Omar’s setup looks insane, I have never seen i before. Personally I think Will from boosted media channel should have at least a mention in a list like this. His setup is also totally insane and always blurring the lines between reality or game.

I’ve followed this channel since the beginning, the content consistently gets better and better! Amazing vibes

Best part of the internet connect with others that have the same interests ..... sim racing , 3d printing, shooting , and racing are my hobbies they don't seem to be hugely popular but online it's easy to find like minded people

Never seen such a real youtube channel! Great work!

Hard times get me. ... i never give up yet. Hope stay like that 🤝 take care Brother

I am new here to an old video, but your humbleness is outstanding. I am currently building a rig myself, one day to hopefully have one as nice as yours. I am def not in the same league, yet. I too get questions and comments all the time about how come I invest so much into something not real... My answer is, excuse me, but it is real. All the equipment I have is real, maybe the track and car I use are virtual but the experience is very real.... Then I tell my friends that if you think it is a waste of money and effort why don't you come and play on my rig and then go back to yours and then you will understand the difference, and my rig isn't even all that great but it is to me and that's all that matters. I am now in the market for the cockpit and the triple monitor stand, already have triple 32" screen setup. My next venture is creating the roof with the lighting effects. I really am on the fence about the cockpit, only because I also use my setup for work, so having it being on the desk and easily convertible from work to play is a key factor for me also. IDK maybe once I get the triple 55" screens (dream screens) then I will just have desk close by for work and no more converting. but again that's after the cockpit and 55" screens.... hoping to get there this next year (2024).... Thank you for the inspiration!! Great video, I respect your humbleness 100%. I am subscribing and hope to catch you live one day soon. Again Thank You!!

Race any car, anywhere any time. Sim racing is getting better and more popular. Awesome!

I love to see how much you enjoy sim racing & more importantly how happy Sim Racing & the comunity makes you ❤ You are a true Diamond to all of us & it is a pleasure to have you! All the best for the future my friend ❤

These are so motivational, creative and absolutly awesome. Hold the line and thanks for all the motivational words, sharing your passion and all the usefull tips and tricks.

We all need happiness.... Listen to this guy!

I ecco your words so much 🤩🤩 & thanks for sharing these amazing rigs. We are all here for the Passion for Racing/ Sim Racing, so lets enjoy it together 🤩🤩

Amazing as always. Loved your recommendations.

You and your videos have inspired me to start my journey into the sim racing world! thank you!!

I do like, share, subscribe and comment on all of those videos of yours because they are awesome. You know I love your work brother. Fully inspired to go down that road later in when i have my dedicated rig room. There are some crazy ideas and I love them all. Definitely give those guys my attention and as always much live and health for you and your family ❤️

Thanks for this fantastic video! So much inspiration! I love the community!

This is one of the most unique channels in KZfaq. It's amazing to see so much passion, execution, and generosity in sharing with the sim racing community!

Fasicanting video as always ... I am seriously planning a video I always dreamed of making but never bothered ... you channel is inspiring me as content creator and as a simracing enthusiast ... thanks a million

I really respect and admire everything you've accomplished so far. This is not just a passion for sim racing, it's also an amazing thing to progress towards a goal and to progress towards this goal by constantly building on the things you do. As you say, you invest in your happiness, that in our short life there should be nothing more important to me than that.

Your content is incredible! Thanks for making the time to make these videos with such angles and editing. 🇮🇪🍀

Mate, I‘ve added some hue lights with sync box and the last weeks I went nuts on kind of building an interior 😂 truly inspiring stuff you‘ve got there, keep up the good content!

Love your passion and content

your humble and kind mindset combined with the amount of passion for doing what you love always amazes me - thank you for letting us be a part of this!

I've been into cars since the day I got my conscience and consequently been into motorsports, racing for my whole life. You're one of the people out there who I respect so much because you genuinely don't even seem like but actually HAVE insane amount of passion and it shows in every one of your videos, I hope to one day build a rig that fully immerses me into my passion the way you and alot of these guys have done. Kudos to you and keep on inspiring likeminded people cus not only you're inspiring them to just go and buy stuff but also inspiring people to work hard for such investments thus building character in the outside world.

I never knew anyone personally who cares about Sim racing or even much about any racing. Doesn't bother me much though, simply chasing my dreams and enjoying my passion.

Im like a kid in a candy store when i see RBM uploaded. Your confidence isnt just shown in your videos but also projected on us and give me and many others the confidence we need which is something very rare. Keep it up brother

Thank you Steliyan for another awesome video 🤩

yes!!!! Nail on the head right there! Thank you

Wow all of those rigs look absolutely stunning and crazy immersive!! For now I`m completely happy with my VR headset but this video definetely gives some great inspiriation 👍👍😍

I always have to try and explain myself and this passion to friends and family. Met very few truly passionate people about the hobby and I appreciate them every day for aiding my guidance toward one of the biggest money pits in my life. It was worth every single hard-working hour I've put into it as well. It's not even about the car in general, but about how fast you can push them to the limit (which I don't get to do very often without a rig) Love the video man, well said.

Another epic insight into the world of sim racing Bro!

another satisfying video... it's true it's about a passion...i very new to sim racing but absolutely love it..my rig will be done in stages ,,building my computer now (it's a beast) im using a entry thrustmaster tmx but, am buying cls dd for a first DD and im using a few que's from your rig for my own..yes it is expensive but as you put it,,"i invest in my happiness"....really appreciate you always bringing us together rather than a bunch of negative banter..we are a family ..i love the culture and all that jiva....cheers mate

Great footage from all these rigs! Amazingly realistic! To me it’s all about putting a smile on your face…I’m always happy when I’m in my modest rig….even if I’m not racing and just adding things to it I don’t really need!😂 that’s probably my favourite part if I’m honest👍🙂

Love your energy and environment !

You're so down to hearth and humble, despite your talent. Many people could learn from you.. Explaining this passion to anyone is very hard. My wife tolerates it, so I consider myself lucky but most of the time we have to face laugh or incomprehension at best. Investing is not bad if it's not to pass on real life duties. For me the golden rule is racing only when kids are not around (sleeping, away from the house..). I manage to race around 8h per week Continue the great work to inspire us! I wish I could have a beer with you if I visit germany one day!

really beautifull. love how the simracing community is growing. It's a wonderful hobby

Excellent video man! Am a huge fan of the last guy too! Next level!

Yes those are The Craziest Simracing cockpit. Good work man

Great video, good see such passion

Another amazing video, thank you. I love the happiness you experience in this beautiful hobby. My setup is very basic but I enjoy every minute playing.

So much love, great vid

Your whole room setup is COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i can't wait to get there like some of these guys and your rig

SIM racing saved my life! I get it

Naaah the editing is fire 🔥🔥

Awesome video as usual! Makes my sim racing spending feel justified! i'm not alone. Ha ha. Honestly some spend more on golf. It doesn't matter as long as you are happy. One life to live !

Another great video 😍

Love it. Now I’m going to burn tyres and spill petrol on the floor before I race to increase immersion. 😆

this is beyond insane level

Your voice is suchhhh a welcome change to Boosted Media. I can't listen to that high pitched aussie accent anymore haha

Great video as always mate 😉✌🏻

Oh man that was some sick setups bro! Really cool with that real rear view mirror!💪😀✌

I want to add the drink to my rig. 🤣

i would love to see someone hookup up actual 1.drinks to their drink button for sim racing. 2. have a projector behind the screen scrolling ambient background so that view was all encompassing - similar to philips hue. 3. a small monitor / mirror that has actual rear window

Allwys nice and quality content! ❤

I have the biggest case of simulator envy now...

Danny's rig is sick and Omar's idea is really cool. Sim racing is really cool hobby to have for someone with passion to both racing and cars! Appreciate your videos, all the best bro 💪

Love your videos man!

I love this Video 🚀❤️👍🏻

Awesome Video

OMG! "I invest in happiness..."

For those who are about to start in this wonderful world, or are about to leave it due to bad results, remember this. It's not about being the fastest or beating everyone on the track, it's about improving yourself day by day but only enjoying the process.Hugs. PD: Love your videos.

Love It!!

Absolutely Fantastic video RBM. I don't have the money or resources to do these types of things, so I still race with a G29 on a simple A-Frame stand. But every month (except in these Covid times now) I get together with my Brother, and we pick a random car and track and Hotlap it till one of us can't beat the others time in a pre-chosen time cuttoff........ awesome fun for both of us, RBM P.S. I'd like to give a Shout-out to another great Rig-Setup Channel called Mixed Reality Sim Racing. He doesn't have the time to do it much now, but it is a fantastic channel all the same...
