MOMO G25
Nice eh?
Now I must find a momo wheel to stick on my G25. I mean the original G25 leather is great, but with a momo it will be the ultimate wheel.
I need to find a wheel, and a small touchscreen LCD for a control panel.

There is probably enough money in that setup to run a shifter cart for a year

I actually looked into that shifter cart biz a while ago  The numbers were way to high for me
His setup is not that much. A set of pro pedals, a seat, a G25 and a touchscreen.
Just the encoluser makes it all, which is homemade anyway

There is $2500 buried in that setup - at least.
The PC, the seat, the controllers, the software etc..
I have seen a couple of used shifter setups for sale for about $2000 in Houston.
His cable management skills need some work though

That is one crazy setup.. all the it needs are some more LCD's to get the surround view effect.

Definitely.. just not competitively
but only if you're lucky enough to have a track near by and find a good deal on a kart and trailer (unless you've got a pickup with a big bed, which is ideal)

 it really isnt all that expensive.
There is a G25, a MOMO, a good set of pedals and a homemade cockpit, and a 200$ touchscreen.
You couldnt race moutain bikes for the price of that rig for a year
