"HAS THIS GUY EVER CLEANED HIS DESK???" - Roasting Your Sim Rigs 

Guy from the first pic here! This picture depicts an experimental rig which was supposed to give me the f1 sitting position experience... Long story I'd rather drag my face across rb9's exhaust than sit there again (still rocking the g29 but with a proper stand!)

13:11: the anti-depression medicine to the left of the tablet is a nice touch and very fitting.

11:36 here! That's the MVH Studios F1 style rim for a G29, and yep -- I decided to upgrade to a decent rig frame first and then get a new wheel later on, intending on some Moza gear in a month or two hopefully. Definitely right about feeling more immersed in a rig, feels way better than clamped to a desk and can turn the FFB up higher as a result.

4:00 - there is no better stopper for office chairs than crocs

jimmy this series is brilliant i love seeing little door into other peoples lives

Seeing a video where the host doesn't just roast everyone with a setup that cost less that 10k is so refreshing. It's pretty exhausting seeing people's humble setups get made fun of on reddit/RU-vid, so this was great!

4:46 Thanks for the respect of my rig. That was the only rig I could fit into the only area I could place it, and it is set up for a formula type seating position. I do run Heusinkveld Ultimate+ pedals. I do record and post videos of league and endurance races to my RU-vid page (Shameless plug).

A tip for all my fellow wheelie chaired individuals, put an old shoe on the back wheel, works like a charm!

13:04 PlzNoPunterinoJimmah here - First of all, yes, the laptop background is from Roblox game called "Formula Classic". Crashed and burned the poor Lotus 72 and took a screenshot from it. Second, the game on IPad is called "Real Racing 3", it's fun, good game when you are bored(And yes, since I'm Korean, the language setting is on Korean, you have good eyes) And third..... had to put your pretty face on my beautiful monitor. Hope you liked it.

For everyone that has a "wheeley" chair and do sim racing, the fix that I did on my setup was to buy a rubber mat for the floor and it helps prevent the Wheels to move a lot more. In my case was a decathlon Ground Cover mat for a threadmill, it has a rubbery feel. Cheers!

Mono 13:50 here : i already found solutions for the pedals and chair, and i don’t really know anything about tire pressure so it’s good to know that i have to look into that also added my ps2 back into the mix

I wasn't expecting to see a Dualshock 3 still in use on a PC, I thought I was the only one left

I love Jimmy's increased use of the jeremy clarkson adenoids voice lmao If I'd known this was gonna happen I'd have posted mine, it's proper ghetto

it's not just the wheels on desk chairs, it's the swivel too. fighting force feedback can twist you around and effect your pedal pressure and overall wheel control

To triple monitor friends, a strip of black electrical tape to cover the gap between your monitors is an absolute winner.

reg: seats.. Yes Jimmer, I need me a plus size seat too. My rig has this beautiful sparco seat on it, but I simply dont fit. Think I'll go buy a nice used car seat from a breaker instead. Bonus points if I can get the seatwarmer working. Lush!

I love this man he has become my daily watch! I hope for more success for you Jimmy!

My guy really said “I wanna drink and drive but I only want to hurt myself

These are pretty wholesome for being "roasts". Absolutely love 'em

Mines at 14:45 It is self made, and its in pieces as the mount for the base broke because i didnt reinforce them properly when designing the rig (literally tore the box section at the corners lmao)

Jimmer! I have a Corbeau DFX seat and it's super comfy. I could sit in it for hours and nothing hurts. Highly recommend.

We need more episodes of this Jimmy! you a legend!

I just love seeing the creative soloutions that fellow budget or space limited people have. Often simple yet genius ways of improving basic setups for next to nothing.

When I had a wheelchair I would use old socks or a piece of cleaning cloth to lock the wheels, just get it stuck between the wheel and the casing, it's pretty effective.

Great tip if you race with a pad: Drill into the thumb-pad and superglue a bit of dowel in there, about an inch long. Then get hold of another pad (can be a cheap, broken one), cut one of the thumbpads off, drill out the back of it and glue it onto the bit of dowel. Extending the length of the thumbpad by even half an inch like this increases the fidelity of the controls by a crazy amount and makes it so much easier to do gentle, smooth inputs..

I had to recently update from a G27 to a G923 but I made use of the "rubber band" mod. Longer screws at 9 and 3 o'clock on the shifter, and lots of knicker elastic. Made for an excellent sequential shifter or handbrake.

Been waiting for another of these, love it

For those who are building their own rig and aren't bothered with a little work, you could have a comfy seat for sim racing for cheap or an office chair, but that might be a bit more work. Check out used car parts yards for car seats. Just don't go hoping find Bride/Recaro seats for cheap, that's not likely to happen. What you're looking for are commuter cars like a corolla/civic. Go for the passenger seat because it'll likely have less wear and such. From $100 - $300, you've got a cheap/comfortable seat, might want to clean it before use though. Just a warning, the seat might be too tall for premade rigs, take measurements before buying seats. Also, custom brackets may be required.

I love the "Super Serious Track Guide" reference. Editor love haha 😶

Love to see a fellow enjoyer of the objectively better F1 on the desktop at 12:17 . Raf, I don't like racing against you in YGRL, but good job for getting those cars seen

I used that Ikea table (but in black) with Fanatec CSR weighed down with 2 x 8" hexahonal concrete slabs wrapped in a black bin bag with 42 inch tv on top of the slabs. Seating was a leather passenger seat from an alpha 156 screwed directly to the floor (rack still operational)

9:52 I HAD THAT EXACT DESK MAT FOR YEARS

dude with the saturn 5 manual rocking the poundland keyboard. beautiful

Was not expecting to get cleaning tips for my PS3 controller, but thanks anyways Jimmer!

The secret to wheely chairs is towels wrapped round the wheels - not that I have ever done that before!!

dammit jimmer, you had me cracking up laughing multiple times in this one. great stuff as always brother!

Had a G25 years ago grteat wheel for the time, shifter had a big rotating selector changed it from H to sequential, great bit of kit. When I upgraded to a erm G29 (cant remember) I kept the G25 pedals, they where so much better. Moved on to TM now, next will be DD!

These vids are getting better and better ❤

Jimmys presentation skills and content lure you in but..... Joey keeps me coming back for these edits xD

The flight stick launch control reminds me of one of the Taxi movies when he jumps the fence. What a film.

9:35 I did a similar thing but to use my g27 h shifter as an e-brake, where the elastic pulled the shifter forward, and when i went into 4th, it would engage the e-brake. I hadn't thought of the sequential hack, since i had flappy paddle shifters on the wheel.

Love this series Jimmer :)

I got a g293. The rubber band trick is genius! It's been a real source of annoyance and removes a lot of the immersion to have the handbrake mapped to a button on the wheel. Will definitely try it on my next rally stint.

Need more of these like one a week

Finaly! my favorite series!

There are a lot of cool mods for the G29/G920 these days, I've got magnetic pads for the shift paddles that make it a lot snappier, and I've seen a proper sequential kit for the G29 shifter. It's a fairly permanent change and so I've never invested in it but it's nice to know it exists. I think I've seen a proper mod kit to make the shifter into a handbrake as well.

That game is Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3. More commonly known as Maxitune.

Jimmer got me into sim racing and i love him for it👍 im all in at 600$, Thrustmaster TMX pro and thrustmaster shifter, play assetto on xbox and havent played any other games since i got the rig

i like the old wheels that do creative mods to them, like the g29 with f1 style wheel and the sequential or handbrake trick on g27. nice

can we please appreciatie the 1st guy going for 'real' F1 sitting position, feet up and all? dis was fun

Best series is back

Lmao the last image with the shifter, did something like that with a hair tie on mine for a handbrake.

This is less roasting of rigs, and more roasting of people's desks/rooms 😆

Maxtune? In a Jimmer video? Sign me up

I love these vids Jimmy!

the dualshock setup reminded me - before i got my wheel i tried using the gyro on my DS4. works absolutely shockingly well, would make a fun video if you tried it out. you'll honestly be surprised, it's a pain holding your arms up but the actual input is really smooth and accurate

I had the same ikea table the first rig had. With the beanbag chair for good back support

17:21 That's All Might from My Hero Academia on the poster and the mouse pad/mat could be a Pokemon TCG playmat.

The most shocking thing about these rigs for me is that so many of the shifters were on the left. As a simple mainland European dude right-hand drive fries my brain.

I have a t300 on an antique table, that has no space to take the 'leg' part of the wheelbase, so I had to DIY a metal plate and a few wooden panels, that the wheel keeps suspended in front of the table, which in return keeps the wheel attached... hack job, but sufficient for my non existent skills :D

3:50 i also have chair with wheels, whenever i do racing i just zip-tie it to the wheel rack xD

Mad respect to the person with the Kackiest Kacky wallpaper, wonder if they drive TM with that wheel as well

17:27 those half life noises 🔥 love the edits

"What else you using the VR for?" 😂🤣😂🤣

Having my Discord degeneracy exposed for a solid 12+ seconds was a suboptimal way to make a Jimmer video

Need to bring this back😂

Awesome Jimmy so refreshing , cheers

"Can roast your rig" roasts the room decor instead . Certified jimmer moment

10:10 - Scraping shit out of the cracks in controllers, remotes and anything else electrical that you hold is one of my favourite things in the world. You have to let it build up a little bit though to achieve maximum satisfaction.

I would love if you’d make a video on viewers evolutions of their rigs, would certainly send in pictures from my various rigs I’ve had over the years. Mine is certainly not finnished yet though.

I took the wheels off a comfy office chair. Stopped it moving, and made the seat a few inches lower.

I have a Toyota Cressida drivers side seat with lumbar and all other normal movements. Plus it is extra comfortable!

13:06 I need to know where this was from so I can add it to my work computer as a wallpaper. Lmao

18:59 oh god... my first ever racing wheel

0:33 ngl the snippet of the Staind song cut me off guard 😂

3:42 i use a mat with my chair to stop it from rolling around

I have a really nice setup, but mine is certainly by far the nastiest of any of these lol. Anyway, Next Level Racing F-GT Lite, Thrustmaster TS-XW Racer + Sparco Alacantara wheel(GT cars) + Ferrari F1 wheel(Formula cars) + T-LCM load cell pedals, VR only(HP Reverb G2).

My sim rig is a G29 attached to a £16 Argos desk with supports removed so when the wheel turns left, so does the desk. I then sit in a wheeled chair, so hard braking is a fun experience - I use an exercise bike jammed between my chair and bed to keep things in place, which almost kind of works. Oh and I'm plugged into an ethernet cable that's taped to my door. Not much point roasting that really. Still drives straighter than my real car though...

when smashing the brakes and the chair starts rolling back... just hold the wheel tighter and pull yerself back *sagely nods

I've used a computer chair for sim racing for years now. Its fine as long as the chair is on carpet that way you don't move as easily.

The Lego LAAT is the best part of this vid 😂

had a wheel on my desk for some time and man i managed to have nothing work properly. shifter always came sliding of the table though it was screwed as hard as possible and my chair and pedals kept moving in seperate ways. good times

3:45 What I've done with this kind of chair is I've removed the wheels.

He Back at it boys

3:30 A man of culture with the Kacky wallpaper.

Is that an R4 song I hear on the Mono portion? Man I knew this channel was something special

2:04 Oh damn, SouthPawRacer just got called out!

ngl id kill for the wheel and shifter in the thumb nail 😂

I got a lovely Seat from an Old Saab, leather and fabric, fully adjustaable even heated seat if i stick a battery on, miles better than sim seats i think.

Jimmy congratz on the podium in Germany :)

5:00 I was drinking coffee at this moment. Was.

I took all the wheels off my chair. I couldn't deal with all the moving and swiveling anymore

bucket chairs from Target or walmart are pretty comfy I use one.

4:30 is a trackmania player 100%. Kackiest Kacky desktop background.

Watching this made me really miss my rig, its nothing special a g29 with peddles and shifter on a foldable/collapsible rig I got on Amazon, usually sat on a garden chair as it was the only one we had that was the right size lol, unfortunately had to move out and now it's just folded up in the corner of a spare room as I don't have space to use it anymore.

Jimmy is looking very in shape

My setup is gettin there, its slightly cursed but it wont be some day. Wish i woulda known he was gonna do this cuz I absolutely woulda submitted mine 😂

You go into an epileptic fit if you saw my desk/racing rig, living room setup. LOL I blow the dust off and wipe down the important parts.

max tune is such a good game

Jimmer has the best editors 😂
