Driving a Tesla on the Simulator: • Video
In this video:
Why I chose the Trakracer RS6 frame: a compact, adjustable, and simple design with a rich history of quality.
Sitting comfortably with the GT Fixed fiberglass seat: a realistic racecar feel for those long racing sessions.
Gaming on my PS5 and diving into Gran Turismo with the Logitech Pro racing wheel and pedals. Feel the road like never before!
Visuals powered by a TCL 55-inch 4K Qled TV and a stand from Next Level Racing that fits just right in my unique space.
Crisp audio experience with a 5.1 Surround Bar and Sony's PULSE 3D headphones for the PS5 and PS4.
Sneak peek into my secret simulator spot - you'll never guess where I've set it up!
My impressions after some intense racing sessions. 🎮

Holy sh!t, a hidden gem! Love your vids!
Thank you!
This man deserves a lot more followers. Great videos man keep it up.
I appreciate that!
Great vid, dude! I'm really digging your edits and this sim racing setup
Thank you, I appreciate it
Love it. I’ve been sim racing for over a decade and my only advice is for you to turn off the lights. Everything in that room will melt away and GT7 will feel WAY more immersive.
Thanks! I usually turn them off just needed them for the video
Awesome video man, really well put together and informative - im in the process of info gathering for a sim setup!
Glad it was helpful!
Great setup. Giving me ideas for my setup. Thanks.
Glad to help!
the setup looks great, but what's really impressive is it's location! you have a full racing sim in your closet and it looks perfect!
Thank you!
I was sim racing on a stand , didn’t really have room for a rig, then I seen your video , bought a rig that day, took the shelves out and painted while I was waiting for it to arrive. Such a good idea , just gotta put some pictures up so the walls don’t look bare and it’ll be done 😊
Niceee let me know how it goes!
Hey great vid! I would recommend you to left-foot brake, it will make you win some lap time here and there on every braking point. And your left foot would be on a more comfortable position. Also the shoes you are wearing have a very thick sole. I would recommend you to give a go to driving with shocks or if you do have a pair of shoes with a thin sole (like racing boots) you can give it a go.
Thanks so much for the information, I’ll try it out!
also if you're not using a shifter, take out the clutch pedal and move brake pedal over to the left for more comfortable 2 feet driving position
Clean setup!
Thanks!
I set mine in the corner and just use the PSVR2 for both ACC and GT7. GT7 of course gets the full VR setup but there’s also a theater mode for non vr games and the largest setting for the virtual monitor is perfect for my previous FOV.
I bought the PSVR2 but it made me sick using it and hated the fact it needs to stay in a certain position to get the clearest view. I bought it before I got GT7 so I may try it again
very nice setup
Thanks!
Welcome to a highly addictive hobby! Killer setup! Enjoy!
Thank you!
Love playing GT7! All I need now is the PSVR2 🎮
I tried it, had to return it after it made me sick 🤮
just wat i was looking for, I'm tryna build the same rig and i dont have much space.
This may be a perfect solution!
Nice rig!!
Thank you!
Funny I'm starting the same hobby. My NLR cockpit is arriving tomorrow 😅
Awesome! Get ready its addicting
I have a 65inch tv but was wondering if there’s a stand that will hold that big of a tv. Reason why is because I’m upgrading my living room tv to a 77inch lg oled tv . I’m new to sim racing and I love gt7. I’ll probably play pc sim games as well in the future. Great video btw 👍🏻
The stand I'm using will hold a 65 inch
That’s sooooo cool! I was looking at getting a RS6 myself. What are the adjustments on it, does it support short people?? Great Vid!! 👍👍
It has height and fwd bkwd adjustments. I'm short as well!
Really nice setup. Do you feel 55 inches is the perfect size tv? I ask because I don’t know if I should do a 42 or 55 inch tv size for my rig.
I considered getting smaller at first as there were mixed opinions on size but i went with my gut and glad I went with the 55 because it's the perfect size especially for immersion. The size of the cars interior feels right with the size of the steering wheel
Nice setup... talk about going all in! Nice! Hope to see you on track on GT7 someday
Edit: Cant find the PSN in description... i know im old and blind....lol
Left foot braking will unlock another half a second there....great set up. Similar but with DD pro 8nm bundle. Enjoy
Thank you
now you need psvr2 and a buttkicker under your seat ;-)
I bought the PSVR2 and immediately returned it. It was blurry and made me sick =/
Dude you should’ve hat psvr2 it’s a game changer
I had it and it made me really sick, i wish i could've enjoyed it
Are you still happy with screen size? Would you go smaller if you had to do it again?
No regrets
Love your setup! Im curious if you considered the TR8 pro at all? Im torn between that and the RS6. Im a casual racer with limited space. I need to be able to move the rig in my living room and my office
I checked out all options and the 6 worked best for me and the space, it’s very well built and I think most people who bought the 8 definitely could have gotten away with the 6
@@MikeSeussVlogs awesome! I got the 6 yesterday because I have limited space. Do you notice any flex on the pedals when you break hard?
Hi Mike, i really like your video content ❤❤, I already follow you because of Tesla content videos. I am planning to get a sim racing too I had a thrustmaster t248p but want to upgrade for DD. is this new DD logetic better than Moza R9 or FANATEC pro DD?
Definitely better than the Fanatec Pro which only has 8nm of Torque and Moza 9nm, compared to Logitech’s 11. Also Logitech is the only one who has Trueforce and it’s insane, you can literally feel the groves in the road, car engine, tire grip and so much more. Plus it comes with wheel and base for one price. You can also use it for both pc and console, unlike Moza or Fanatec. Hope this helps!
@MikeSeussVlogs Yes, this really helps. i hope logetic will have other pro new product released soon for future upgrades like F1 wheels, handbrake and manual pro shifter soon
@MikeSeussVlogs is true force really worth it? The Fanatac had a podium racing with 20nm for $1300 base and F1 wheel
I did a quick search. This new Logetic pro is the best forced true feedback as it is compared with high end more expensive sim racing like the Leo Bodnar that's cost more than $4000. You did a great choice 👏 👍 👌
LEFT FOOT BRAKE!!
Learned after making this video, don’t worry I left foot brake now 😅
Break with your left foot it will make you faster love your setup tho
Thanks, you’re right! I’ve been left door braking since another commenter suggested it and it’s been a game changer
Looks nice bro, you just need to learn breaking with left foot.
Thanks
You might wanna give vr a chance if upgrading tv doesn't seem like the right thing.
I tried it out, I bought the new PSVR and it was really blurry and make me sick at times, I tried everything to fix it, I really wanted to love it
@MikeSeussVlogs Yeah, it takes a few adjustments and a lot of time to get used to it. Maybe if you decide to go the pc route in the future, you can try out some of the better vr options out there.

👍
I sent a friend request. I hope to play gt7 with you as I also have a sim with g29. :)
Got it!
What is the total price for this set up?
In total everything costs me $3,703 that includes the PS5 and game. But you can lower the cost by getting a different TV and maybe a PS4 Pro which gives you the same experience just without ray tracing
Check out extreme sim racing... full rig with monitor stand for $1k. Wheel $1k and console ...you can do it cheaper and just as good 👍
@@Zascar_88 I never heard of extreme sim racing. I’m doing research myself so if I can cut come corners and save money that sounds great!
Start working on left foot braking, you are going to lose way too much time if you are not using it.
Thanks
No VR? You are missing out big time
I bought the new PS VR and hated it, it was very blurry and made me sick, I tried to love it but just couldn’t =\
@@MikeSeussVlogs ohh wow thats sad to hear. Im loving it but too bad for you
@@MikeSeussVlogsdid you enable eye tracking it really helps with dizziness
With that setup you should play on pc...otherwise it s a waste of money and tv!!!!
Not necessarily GT7 is great for this setup Assetto Corsa as well. GT7 hosts the largest competitive online racing platform supported by the international governing body of motorsport and the Fédération Internationale del'Automobile. If I had a motion sim that would be a different story and PC would be the better choice. But I’m curious as to why you consider its a “waste”..
gt7 in vr is game changer
That's awful close man, a bit cramped
It’s actually not too bad at all, everything is in a fixed position so there’s no need for any extra room, the seat is able to move forward and back all the way and there’s plenty room on both sides to get in and out, the monitor also has extra room to move further back as well!
