    Hi guys, just need some advice on a full racing rig, (non motion), mainly for using Kart Racing Pro, and strong enough to run games like Rfactor 2...

    Thanks.

    I am not sure what you mean be "advice on a full racing rig, (non motion)".

    Do you mean the computer hardware to run games, static frames or views on peripherals or maybe all of those? If it is non motion rigs you are interested you may want to ask that question on some of the sim racing forums.
