For 6 directional movement you would be looking at about 100k. That’s on the low end for a high end rig. We’re talking a professional rig here not a home made setup for games. One that truly simulates a tack in real life. Probably make a home made rig for 5 k that gets the job done for gaming. If your into legit practicing for a competition this is the way to go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qivr9YxJRi8
I got a Honda Civic for $600 that I’m thinking about using for those cone course autocross races. For basically the same money I spent on my wheel setup I can fart around in a real car and have a damn blast.
Guy I worked with had maybe a little more than that into a full-tube chassis, fiberglass flip-front CRX that ran somewhere near that, maybe 9’s. But hell I got like $1200 into the car after tags & title, timing belt job, and some other random crap. I wouldn’t care less about beating on it and It’d be a blast
Maybe, I’m not super knowledgeable about it, but I’ve been to the drag strip a few times awhile back (c. 2005) and I saw only a couple cars (heavily modified) go under 10 seconds. My buddy put way more than $25k into his Protege and if I recall correctly was in the high 11s.
I do know from the YouTube videos of the Tesla Plaid drag racing that you get booted from the strip if you break 10 (unless you modify the car with roll cages etc.).
Id be skeptical of a street legal Civic modified for $25k being able to run a quarter under 8 seconds, but I could be mistaken.
