I use my camaro as an XBOX game controller for VR sim racing

Hi everyone on the forum!

Long time no see! I hope everyone's doing well.

I've been diving into car simulation games (Forza, Assetto Corsa, BeamNG, ...). I was getting tired of playing with a gamepad, and I didn't want to spend money on buying a gaming wheel and pedals when I already had all that in my garage!

So, I did some tinkering, and now I can race my Camaro on the track without even leaving my garage!
Accidents don't cost me anything, and I can even drive completely drunk

Here's a glimpse of what it looks like:


For the technical explanations (reverse engineering on the CAN bus and everything else), I've put everything on GitHub: https://github.com/psykokwak-com/camarogamepad

Anyway, we're having fun however we can!
