Let's Build a Sequential Shift kit for Sim Racing
I think at the end of the day its all about immersion. I have been wanting a sequential shifter for quite some time. I've had this idea floating around in my head for a bit and I'm happy I was able to make it a reality and also film the whole process. Building your own DIY USB Sequential shifter is a great project that will definitely add more immersion to your rig. I did this on the fly and had a great time putting this together. Here is a list of supplies that I used to create this shifter. I would say all in this can be made for under $30
