Welcome to
F1Design.US …my little spot
on the web. This site is dedicated to various DIY projects I have going
on. I am very interested in Online Racing Simulations from
rFactor to
CodeMasters F1
series and even on legacy games from
EA and
GP Legends. |

I am an avid fan of the technical
side of Formula One and the constant use of cutting edge
technologies. I got interested in F1 in the 80’s and
have had a serious passion for it since the late 90’s.
My first racing game was
Ferrari F355 Challenge for the
Sega Dreamcast. That is the game that started me on the
path of building my own cockpit. The first sim consisted
of a race seat and an off the shelf wheel and pedal set.

Over time I outgrew the
console games and moved to the PC where there is a lot
more variables and modifications to play with. I am
running a few different mods for rFactor but I am
currently enjoying
Game Stock Car Extreme. Also I have been enjoying the new
look and feel of Code Masters F1 series and look forward
to it getting better with each release. |

I have to also
note that
Race Sim Central was a huge component in
my early days and I hope that in time the
community will return to this site and build
it up to the database of knowledge it
once was. I have tried to include as much
information as I have from my builds here,
since most was lost when RSC went down. |

Take a look
around the site and you will find lots of
topics dealing with Formula One, Sim Racing
and other projects I have going on. I do a
bit of scale modeling, RC aircraft, and when
I have time continue to enjoy photography.

I will post
photo sets of the things I have going on and
places I have been when I can. Updates will
happen, but randomly as time allows. The
latest trick I have been playing with is the
DIY CNC machine I built...you can see and
read all about it in the My Projects
section. |
|
As far as
services that I offer I do a fair amount of
PCB design and repair in my spare time. I
also repair a lot of different electronics
on the Ferrari road cars from the last 3
decades. I am a CAE engineer by trade with
an electrical / semiconductor background so
if there is something you need or want to
know about anything I have built, repaired
,modded, or designed just ask.... Enjoy your
stay! Oh...one
last thing to make my attorney happy...read
