I stopped by Wal-Mart on my way home from work today and picked up a cheap TV stand and coffee table so I could start renovating my rig. As promised here's some photos of my progress (ignore the butt ugly carpet, we're getting new floors soon):

I still need to move the shifter to the adapter on the seat and clean up the wires on the back of the monitor stand. Also the speakers aren't connected yet.

I'm also going to be adding a couple pieces of wood to the bottom of the table to rise it up about 4 inches, the wood slabs under the monitor stand are temporary. I'll be hitting up Lowe's this weekend for sure.

here's a shot of the clubsport pedals, everything is pretty snug under there, almost no wasted space.

how do you get all 3 xbox's to play the same game? I take it you have 3 because of 3 monitors. How does that work?

:) Glad ya'll like it. Another thing I forgot to mention is that now the screens are about a foot closer to me eyes than they were before. This has made a huge difference in the immersion. @ ekattan, his is a game specific feature in Forza. The three xboxes are all connected to a router and there's a copy of the game in each console. Once you set up the preferences in game, the center console works as a host and the other views are clients. It's almost like a Multiplayer LAN, except it works in all the game modes. Baja: Edge of control also has a similar feature, but it isn't implemented very well. There are no shooters or other genres yet, but it would be cool if one of the developers stepped up and added the support.
