    All is mounted now to my liking alot of changes where made but like the new look saving up for the h shifter for fanatec before I'm ready to tear up the dirt again its a must have for me. Don't really want to dig into making the logitech shifter work standalone. I'm still working on motion but had to take a pause for much needed updates

    Current picture of the always changing brains of my project soon will be trying out a 1500w 24v power supply to see if the rig will operate off it so I can remove the 2 12v batteries it's been running from
