Great review. I to am an old guy. I built a platform out of 2x6 that lined the base and painted it black. For $20 it really helps getting out after a long session.
old guy here too, I raised my seat about 4 inches with some metal pieces I had laying around. Much easier to get out now, and a little better angle on my creaky knees too.
As a fellow gentleman gamer of senior years, I appreciate your calm delivery, touch of humour and informative analysis. I would however, suggest if possible, an addendum to this video addressing the use of a monitor set up with this rig. Another quality vid, thank you Paul.
Hi fellow Gentleman gamer. Thank you for your comment. Yes, that's been on my mind a lot lately. I do mostly play in VR, but sadly I cannot livestream a race in VR as it makes my computer break out in a Blue-Screen of death. I think I run out of video memory. The cheapest answer would be to run the sim race on a monitor and live stream it like that. And of course, at the same time I can add a monitor to the rig and create a review. I hope to gain some inspiration on what monitor to use when I visit the Sim racing expo in Dortmund in October.
@@OlderGamersPerspective I have a Gigabyte G34WQC Curved 34" which is very good. I was surprised at how the extra, erm, girth seems to help with my vision with more screen. That said, I think in terms of sim racing a 49" would probably be a better investment if funds allow.
@@nexusdogI've got a 50 inch 4k TV that needs to be replaced due to it's issues with Netflix, I am wondering if I could use that via HDMi to run simracing. Although if I step outside VR, I am in the murky world of FOV settings...
Thanks so much for this. If only I'd seen it before I bought the Playseat Challenge a month ago! I've been undecided about whether to buy the ART as the Playseat is alright but, being 55 and an old bloke, not really that comfortable after 10-15 minutes. After watching your video I have just ordered the ART with the XL RS seat. Can't wait!! 🙂 Thanks again
Hi, thank you for commenting and I am glad this video was of help to you. To be honest, I wish I had seen my video before I bought the deckchair sim. LOL, but hey, life is a journey so what can you do? Let me know how things work out for you and the ART. It's a bit fiddly to setup, and also, needs some time before you find the right position for the chair, and the angle of the pedals and the wheel. So it's not a five minute job, but once you have it sorted out, you will probably only need some fine tuning before it become super comfortable. I would say the ART can be a bit low, for older users, which I find a bit of a problem for getting in and out, but once I am in there, I can stay there for as long as the battery on my VR headset lasts :) Some here who have commented, told me they have placed the whole rig on a metal or wooden stand to raise it a bit. I haven't gone that far yet, as I am managing, but it might be something to think about.
@@OlderGamersPerspective I've now got the rig set up and, after the Playseat Challenge, WOW! What a difference. I'm glad I went for the XL RS seat, it's so comfortable. One thing that did surprise me, as you mentioned, is how low it is. I'm thinking about raising it up but it's not a priority. I've got the wheel and pedals to my liking after some adjustment, and am now looking forward to being able to race without getting back ache after fifteen minutes! Thanks again 🙂
@@TCRLarson Hey, I am so glad it worked out well for you. It's a great rig, but you might find that after a week or so you need to make minor adjustments, just to get it that sweet spot. The lowness can be an issue, but only when getting in and out :) Enjoy your rig. What do you have as a wheel and pedals?
@@OlderGamersPerspective Thanks 🙂 Having played for three hours straight last night (something that just would not be possible for me in the Playseat) I do need to make minor adjustments to where my pedals are...I'm finding my left leg (braking) is aching a bit as I need to angle it just a little too much to the right to be comfortable on the brake pedal. I'm currently using a G29 with upgraded brake pedal spring from MVH Studios. I need to find a way to mount the pedals slightly to the right and it'll be perfect. I was a little concerned about the wheel position as up and down adjustment means the wheel also moves closer or further away but this isn't a problem after all. I've also changed the angle of the wheel deck, raising it up slightly. Now I've got the ART I'm saving for a DD wheel bundle. I only really play GT7 on console so I think my choice of these will be limited but hopefully Fanatec or Moza. I've never tried a DD wheel or a load cell brake pedal so I can't wait 🙂
@@TCRLarson I had something similar and I found taking the tilt down slightly on the pedals (I think to it's lowest) and taking the chair back another notch, worked for me, but each of us is different :) GT7 is Playstation only? In that case, Fanatec is I think your best bet as Moza doesn't officially work with the PS.
Hi, thank you for the comments. I am glad you found the review helpful. Let me know what kit you decide on and what you will end up in the way of sin racing software.
@@OlderGamersPerspective I’ve actually just ordered one! (Don’t tell the wife just yet) hoping to race better in iracing. It’s got to be an improvement than desk mounted. Sold my quest 2 a while back but may consider another. I never used it for racing.
@@Mroldgamer425 it is a huge improvement over desk mounted, you will enjoy it. VR is great for racing, but sometimes a bit limiting for things like overlays, or just having a drink while racing. But it is very immersive. Enjoy your new rig when it arrives.
I just paired mine with the Logitech dd pro and it handles 11nm of torque pretty well. To me it barely moves at max torque but they do now carry support bars you can add and I can say 100% with those added it is solid
I very recently purchased the GT Omega Art rig as i needed to be able to adjust the pedal plate due to my chronic back condition i needed to be able to have my pedals almost flat and not high or at an angle as this seemed to pull on lower back and the Art rig was just perfect for this im 62 yrs of age have been gaming and sim racing for many years . I have a Thrustmaster TGT Wheel and load cell pedals i am 5ft 6" and weigh 10 stone i have not experienced any flex in the Art rig whatsoever !! Even so i did purchase the wheel plate support bars ready for the new release of thrustmasters direct drive wheel for the ps5 in november this year , my only gripe with this Art rig is i also purchased the support bars for the handbrake mount to which i have the thrustmaster sparco handbrake on but it will only fit up to the mount if you have the handbrake mount set right back and bolted into the rig at the holes furthest back !! which then positions my handbrake too far back i have mine bolted into the holes on the rig nearest the front and is the perfect position for me !! thats the only real issue i have although theres almost no flex in the handbrake mount when im pulling the handbrake on in game so i dont really need the support mounts i just feel its a waste of money for me when you cant fit them !! I purchased this rig without a seat as i already had one from my last older rig from gt omega for £179.00 The rig is really really good and im very very pleased with it !!
Hi, glad to hear the Art rig is working with you and is allowing you to sim race with a back condition. I also have some back issues, and so far, apart from getting in and out of the rig (it is very low) I have been fine. The handbrake you mention is interesting as I have been thinking about getting a handbrake for my rig for rally driving, but I am unsure what to get. What do you have and can you recommend it? Also a good tip about the handbrake mount, I'll make sure this is something that I can use before I buy it. I also had a similar purchase regret with my flight sim additions to this rig, but that's mostly because I don't get much time to do flight siming... BUt hey ho, it's there in the future if I need it.
Hi thanks for your reply i personally have and highly recommend the thrustmaster sparco replica handbrake its a very solid premium handbrake / gear shifter you can use as either its a hefty piece of kit and looks totally awesome !! it mounts straight onto the art handbrake mount and if you have the thrustmaster 7 speed gear shifter that actually comes with a bracket to mount to the side of the sparco handbrake. The sparco handbrake is very expensive at around £249.00 but its well worth the price and adds that extra immersion when playing rally games you can adjust the sensitivity of the handbrake in game menu some people have two of these one as the handbrake and one as the sequential gear box !! i will be getting another one too hope this helps in your decision making thanks terry
@@tb6539 That is a lot more than I wanted to pay, but if it can double as a sequential shifter as well, that does make it tempting. I will have to look into the reviews. Thank you for the tip.
@@OlderGamersPerspectiveYesss... It arrived... and it's very well built and sturdy, but I'm still waiting for my Fanatec DD PRO... and I'm reading now that those pedals that come with it are just not so good and I'm considering either to buy ClubSport Pedals V3 or the cheaper ones CSL Elite Pedals V2. What do you think?
@@easyvideott7505 I used a borrowed set of V3 pedals for a while, and they were really nice, but I didn't have them long term enough to form a conclusive opinion. Did you see my video on T-LCM pedals?
@@OlderGamersPerspectiveNow I watched it... and again have questions or rather can you confirm this: Thrustmaster pedals are not compatible with Fanatec Wheel (DD Pro) I'm planing to use this all with PS5 Gran Turismo 7. And as I have seen in your video it confirms that buying a CSL pedals or something even more expensive is a must if you want to have some feedback from your pedals?
@@easyvideott7505 a load cell pedal is really a cool upgrade when matched with a rig like the ART. It gives a lot of bang for your buck. Probably the most significant upgrade you can make. The T-LCM that I have is plugged into my computer via usb. I have a Moza wheel so I can't tell you how it will be with a fanatec. Let me know what you decide to do and or buy.
Great Vid! I`ve ordered a GT Titan to Portugal and gtomega put the wrong harm code in the invoice, now its been stuck about 3 weeks in the customs and their support is very poor to solve anything.
Ty great video 61 here just about to get a rig, and hopefully a gt dd pro, bit worried about wrist strain though seriuosly lol, already have problems due to incorrect wheel angle on a stand thing
Hi, yeah, I had something similar with knee pain because I didn't set up my pedals with enough thought. It does pay to spend a bit of extra time fine tuning your rig to suit you and your needs. If you start to feel some pain, back away, have a rethink, and do some more fine tuning.
Great video. Liked and sub'd. I say "old" is relative. I'm close to 67 (still a kid at heart) and just got into sim racing earlier this year. I have the same cockpit as you with just a different seat. I built a 2ft x 5ft platform that gets me about 4 inches higher. Makes a big difference for me. Easier on the knees. 😎👍
Hi, thank you for commenting and subbing and liking :) Good to meet a fellow older gamer. Yes, the cockpit really does need a lift off the floor, just enough so that I don't thud down so much, or have to scramble out with the help of the dog. And yes, that will be easier on my knees. Just need to find time to do it :) With the Dortmund sim racing expo in just under two weeks, and the release of the Quest 3 in just over one week, I am pretty sure that's not going to happen this month :)
I am fairly tall, at 6 foot two, and weighing in at around 195 pounds or about 14 stone. I would say it's a good fit for anyone tall, and if you are little more skinny than me, it should give you room to grow into it.
Nice to see someone else demolish the cones at Oulton Park lol!!!Good review I will probably invest in one of these rascals, that said I've had my deck chair, sorry playseat challenge for about 5yrs, and I've got to say it's been OK with me. I could just do with something slightly more sturdy, also getting in and out isn't exactly civilised 😂!!!
Those cones are there for us to demolish :) The GT Omega, with this chair I bought, are light years away from the deckchair sim racing seats in terms of comfort. I really couldn't get on with the Next Level deckchair one I tried and sent it straight back. Since I bought the GT Omega ART, I have never looked back. It just sits there, and is ready for me to race, when I am ready to race. Now that is civilised, very important for an older gamer :)
@@OlderGamersPerspective heads up there are multiple company's on amazon selling what appears to be un branded gt omega rigs including the ART for half the price.. from what i can tell its the exact same kit with out the branding and probably quality control but its the route im going to take
Are you still using the ART? Would you recommend it with a CSL DD with loadcell pedals and single monitor? I gave a Reverb G2 but probably would need a 4000 series to get good performance and would rather get a rig setup
I am still using the ART. It's an amazing bit of kit, something that I often don't really think about that much because it just works flawlessly. I get into it, I race, and I never have any issues. One of my best sim racing purchases to date. I am running a Quest 3, with a link cable, into a 13600k system using a 3070. It works 'fine', but it can get a little hot and it does feel like it's using the 3070 to it's maximum. Waiting on the news from CES on what the price of the 4070 super will be. If it's a decent price, AND I can actually buy it at THAT price, I will probably upgrade.
@AnomieDomine - I have the GT Art and Logitech Pro Wheels 11NM and Pro pedals set up at its hardest springs and I see no issues of twisting. Your Fanatec CSL DD 8NM will work fine.
@@chrismiramon7006 Thanks for replying, do you have any of the upgrades like pedal plate or cockpit support bars? Any idea if their casters are worth getting versus others?
I haven't got the support bars... Yet! But I am tempted just for the peace of mind it would bring me when I am being a little enthusiastic with my R9. Other than that, I just want to get the TV extension so I can add a TV to my rig and play on a flat screen when I want to stream live (VR streaming seems to make people vomit). The casters I passed on because I thought it would just make the rig a little more unstable, and I also have no real reason to move it. I am tempted to put it on a plinth though, to bring the height up just a little bit.
@@OlderGamersPerspective Wow I expected it was reinforced based on your description, I might buy reinforced from the start. I'm trying to decide on casters because my PC ultra wide is on a sit/stand but my OLED TV looks and sounds better and is on the other side of the door. Unfortunately my Reverb G2 is apparently EOL. How do you feel about the card refresh? I might go 4070 Ti Super since I have a 2070 Super now, and more letters means more better
You sure can. ruclips.net/video/l3eQVYY6zXc/видео.htmlsi=lVol3ZUHgz4Qtpfq if you take a look at this video, you can see how mine is mounted. I seem to remember that it went straight on there with no fuss and the holes were more or less where I needed them to be.
