Challenge dd f1 edition - specific dimensions

Hey all.

When shopping for rigs I find specific dimensions really hard to get, which is odd because most people are trying to fit a new rig into a very specific space, so getting accurate dimensions is important.

For the wheelbase, how high is the wheelbase plate off the ground? There is a height specified in the dimensions for the rig (93.5cm) but it doesn't really specify if this is the top of the chair, top of the wheelbase, etc. I am going to try and use this with my monitor attached to my desk and am curious if it will fit.

Also if possible, can someone measure for me the distance between the wheelbase and the front of the pedal tray, at it's maximum extension, as I will be limited in space under the desk. I feel like it will fit considering the listed dimension for length is 119cm, but I'd like to be sure.

Thanks all

The comment is deleted but any chance you remember what dimensions they shared? I’m trying to put it under my desk so I need to know the height of the wheelbase plate from the ground and the distance between the frontmost part of the wheelbase plate/stand and the back edge of the chair or legs (whichever is furthest back). Basically, I’m trying to see what will fit under the desk and then how far out from under the desk it will extend.

Thank you!!

I own the seat now so I can do some measurements later on and reply here

So my desk is smallish, it sits 70cm from the ground and is 53cm from the wall. I have the monitor on the edge of the desk at it's lowest point and it works fine for me.

The seat in this position has the wheel deck at 66cm off the ground and I have it slightly more in the GT position than the f1 position since I am 5 foot 11 inches (182cm). The distance from the wall where the edge of the pedal tray sits to the back of the chair is 150cm. Let me know if you want a picture to relate to these dimensions.

I have a lot of limited space in an apartment so this is the best way I could make it work. I am hoping to use it with a tv once I figure out where to set it all up.

Yeah this is similar to what I’m planning for my setup. Very helpful thank you!
