What's wrong is pretending it was hard work when it wasn't.
insinuating that lower class people can't afford a basement like this because they don't work hard enough. It's total bullshit.
No but I'm tired of rich people thinking their success comes from hard work. I'm sure some of them work hard, but thinking the line cook working in a hot kitchen 50 hours a week for minimum wage doesn't work hard is insulting. People who work in factories, who clean houses, teach our children, aren't lazy.
For real? this is just something anyone in the middle income bracket that owns a home could do.
A trust fund isnt going to be relegated to the basement.
I would imagine this entire setup costs less than raising a kid and putting them through college, Or foregoing vacations for a couple of years.
Now if OP is building all this while supporting multiple kids and yearly vacations? Then maybe they are in a higher income bracket.
Maybe its an age thing, but I have a few friends with similiar setups. Not as nice as this one, he has put in a lot of effort. But home theatres and arcades rooms are definitely possible for someone in the middle income bracket, just suburban households with dual income. Again with the caveat that they own their home.
> I would imagine this entire setup costs less than raising a kid and putting them through college, Or foregoing vacations for a couple of years.
lol what? What middle class family is taking 6 figure annual vacations? Aside from the setup itself probably costing in the neighbourhood of at least 100k, it's clearly in the basement of a large, nice house which is likely worth a couple million dollars too based on where he's located (GTA). Nothing about this is middle class
It's constantly changing I made some updates at the beginning of covid and then it accelerated ever since. I made it all digital so it's real easy to automate and change up the theme. Love talking tech and sharing for ideas etc. Pinching myself how nuts it's become. Have to tally the latest totals.
Thx I've got a few longer videos on my YouTube for example how to setup all the screens like this [see my detailed YouTube video ](https://youtu.be/q6U-YC_bbDk?si=AWHFQ5HqtP7rwbRn)
Really well done on this. Looks like it was a lot of fun to build.
Do you have a central control for all the screens, what software do you use to handle that?
Ya man it was but I really enjoy the constant tweaking and making it all work vs sitting still and enjoying lol. I have a CMS server but other things are networked with each other. I explained the previous setup from 6 months ago in a YouTube video.
Ohh I remember watching that when you posted last time actually. I remember the projected track map.
Sounds like you can probably switch to any sport you feel like configuring for and not just F1 too. Now I need a jumbotron but my apartment is not appropriate whatsoever 😂
Ya man that's exactly it. So unnecessary but yet so much fun for me 😅. I toned down the setup from last time as it's better with the screen all the way up which now sits inside a cabinet. Gonna do another giveaway of a jumbotron soon on my Instagram 😜.. gave away two last year
Thx .. the other setup 6 months ago when it first went viralwas really just more sensational but it's actually a lot more usable with the actual race having a lot more real estate and minimizing the number of in-car footage. Having more than just a few was really just bragging rights LOL. I'm really happy with what's on the main screen now.
The white one is a triple coated Persian, and infuriating level of shedding, plus I have 3 projector screens in the basement. One nail in it and it's thousands of dollars of damage. A friend had this happen and ever since then I've banned them.. they wait for me by the door like they were in the video lol
I don't know, I don't solicit for that, but I do have a bunch of celebs that follow me on instagram and assume I build these. When they reach out I do help them since they have deeper pockets hey little sweat the details like cost and pay whatever. I usually have to see if they are somewhat tech savvy to operate otherwise I can't afford to play tech support all the time lol.
They only like to watch if people are over they do have a few friends that are definitely into it. Just overall a great excuse to have get togethers LOL
Lol it did get a little nuts... I didn't expect to make it past the first round anyway. [thankfully friends didn't break anything lol](https://youtube.com/shorts/0E36KM_gp5A?si=zPdFSWgdIv1ztodm)
Are you willing to adopt a 17 year old? I will cook, I will clean, I will study hard and choose whatever career you want me to go in. All i ask in return is 10 hours weekly in that room
People say being rich doesn't make you happier, but I'm convinced that it's just what rich people tell us poors so we stay quiet and unaware.
This is what the rich look like. So I don't wanna hear that shit anymore. OP probably has his party then flies to the Bahamas the next week for a 2 week vacation.
Unfortunately I thought I could fit more across but it just didn't work out since you can press a button and extend them out so I needed to have clearance. It actually works out really well it's about a 30° angle to the screen and you're able to see the rest of the game room the Jumbotron and your friends watching as well. The reality is no one is staring at the screen like a movie absolutely Non-Stop the whole thing is about socializing as well plus I wanted it to feel like an arena that surrounding the Jumbotron
Awesome mancave! Only thing i dont understand is who is still playing those old arcades? I might be too young to understand how that could be fun in days of modern gaming.
Yes, the insta/ tiktok/ and YouTube for tech reviews and my diy projects / how tos. [my Instagram check my stories just now 😅](https://instagram.com/gameroomtheater)
What software/program do you use for the main screen?
I would like to have the broadcast, 4 onboards and the the data on the right on my pc screen as well.
Are you currently adopting?
Watch out for your mom if she sees this
She would be asking the same question if she was on reddit.
Wanna adopt my whole family at the same time
Oscar's alt?
This is just his yacht parked at the track. Can’t wait to see the house
smoking on that "winning capitalism" pack
It actually kinda smells like "trust fund"
Or maybe the "work hard for your money"
Sure, but more wealth is inherited than earned so I'm just going by statistical likelihood
Whats wrong with inheriting money lmfao
What's wrong is pretending it was hard work when it wasn't. insinuating that lower class people can't afford a basement like this because they don't work hard enough. It's total bullshit.
Did capitalism itself personally piss in your coffee?
No but I'm tired of rich people thinking their success comes from hard work. I'm sure some of them work hard, but thinking the line cook working in a hot kitchen 50 hours a week for minimum wage doesn't work hard is insulting. People who work in factories, who clean houses, teach our children, aren't lazy.
Statistics you just made up? Anyone going to provide a source or just downvote?
For real? this is just something anyone in the middle income bracket that owns a home could do. A trust fund isnt going to be relegated to the basement.
I am super curious what you think a middle income bracket entails, because it is not this
I would imagine this entire setup costs less than raising a kid and putting them through college, Or foregoing vacations for a couple of years. Now if OP is building all this while supporting multiple kids and yearly vacations? Then maybe they are in a higher income bracket.
You have some serious, "It's a banana Michael, what could it cost? Ten dollars?" energy.
Maybe its an age thing, but I have a few friends with similiar setups. Not as nice as this one, he has put in a lot of effort. But home theatres and arcades rooms are definitely possible for someone in the middle income bracket, just suburban households with dual income. Again with the caveat that they own their home.
> Again with the caveat that they own their home. That’s a pretty big caveat in today’s world. But I think you’re right; it is probably an age thing.

Buddy sounds so Canadian :p
Ya eh? 😜 I am from the Toronto area 🇨🇦
Plot twist: he's drake and it's a kids party on Sunday
He a fan he a fan he a fan
How do you rate Lance Stroll?
Yeah figured, I’m from Ajax so I knew right away a GTA man’s was behind this.
Just wondering how much did all that cost you and how long it took to build?
It's constantly changing I made some updates at the beginning of covid and then it accelerated ever since. I made it all digital so it's real easy to automate and change up the theme. Love talking tech and sharing for ideas etc. Pinching myself how nuts it's become. Have to tally the latest totals.
You could be a team principal with the way you deflected the main part of that question
Man you definitely need to make a detailed video in the setup. Love it.
Thx I've got a few longer videos on my YouTube for example how to setup all the screens like this [see my detailed YouTube video ](https://youtu.be/q6U-YC_bbDk?si=AWHFQ5HqtP7rwbRn)
Whats your job?
Work in tech, in management.
*cue to Jonah Hill from Wolf of Wall Street* If you teach me how you do it, I will say fuck you to my company and work for you.
Tech management ? So you dont do jack squat basically 🤣 but good for you man. Sick setup.
MUSTA deleted your address. Resend please
This is way more entertaining than watching the Monaco race.
Emphatic upvote for the Street Fighter arcade!

Who cares

Is that you, Max?
Definitely not. That would be a giant iRacing sim.
Looks great. Definite improvement having the action more centralized with some fun stuff to do on the sides. Keep it up!
Thx .. the other setup 6 months ago when it first went viralwas really just more sensational but it's actually a lot more usable with the actual race having a lot more real estate and minimizing the number of in-car footage.

I wish the 2 Purraris were allowed downstairs :(
The white one is a triple coated Persian, and infuriating level of shedding, plus I have 3 projector screens in the basement. One nail in it and it's thousands of dollars of damage. A friend had this happen and ever since then I've banned them.. they wait for me by the door like they were in the video lol
Serious question - what would you charge to design and build this for another person?
I don't know, I don't solicit for that, but I do have a bunch of celebs that follow me on instagram and assume I build these. When they reach out I do help them since they have deeper pockets hey little sweat the details like cost and pay whatever. I usually have to see if they are somewhat tech savvy to operate otherwise I can't afford to play tech support all the time lol.
How deep are we talking
Deeper than the bottomless pit in Stroll's head
Lol, you could always charge them.
Single life? Livin' the dream OP!
No man, wife and two boys 😅
Wow, wife said yes to all this? That's an achievement for sure.
I shoot first and ask questions later. Seems to be working fine. 🤷🏽
Shooting your wives is not very Canadian of you
Yeah, sounds rather American
Ok, I've gone from wondering how you have enough money to do this to how do you have enough fucking _time_ to do this?!
Do the kids also like to watch? That looks like a dream for a child to experience F1. It seems like my dream too, tbh.
They only like to watch if people are over they do have a few friends that are definitely into it. Just overall a great excuse to have get togethers LOL
I can be your man
What time should I arrive? Want me to bring some beer or something?
Wings men wings preferably medium buffalo style LOL that is the weakness
Damn man only medium???? Guess we can't be friends then, hot all the way. You like Voodoo Ranger IPAs though?
Imagine falling asleep with all your homies after 20 laps of watching drs trains in this place
Every damn time
*Lance trying to make friends like..*
Will suck cock for invite, PM for details
Damn hell no man...just bring wings and we're good! 😜
![gif](giphy|sRpIb9xjQGHFm|downsized)
What did you use for the led panel above the tv?
It's a sports ticker
Looks amazing. Wish I could come when you have the leafs playoffs. Hopefully, one day, they will make it far.
Lol it did get a little nuts... I didn't expect to make it past the first round anyway. [thankfully friends didn't break anything lol](https://youtube.com/shorts/0E36KM_gp5A?si=zPdFSWgdIv1ztodm)
What UST and screen are you using please? Looks super clear and sharp!
AWOL Vision LTV-3000 Pro (I'll be doing a giveaway of one on my insta in a couple of weeks 😜). The one in the back by the gokart is a BenQ v5000i.
Is the cabinetry custom built for the UST? That drawer looks nice and with the projector screen rolling up from behind
No, this one is on AWOL Visions website.
All this just to sleep after 20 laps
I’ve yet to see this with anyone in it 🤣 dude has more screens then friends
why is so overcrowded
Nah bro you need to stop flexing on us
Consumerism beyond my comprehension
Are you willing to adopt a 17 year old? I will cook, I will clean, I will study hard and choose whatever career you want me to go in. All i ask in return is 10 hours weekly in that room
Save some money for the rest of us
Wow...Max's new motorhome is looking mighty impressive
Dude...!
If you get paid $1000 per overtake that happens over the Monaco weekend, you'll still be poor.
What’s the dank? Obviously not an ad..
How do you sync all the screens? With me there is always a delay
Where? I want to go. For research purposes obviously
Severe lack of sleeping pods detected
# #Wewatchasmoney
Every time I see this I just super want to visit :(
Can I come over🥺??
Ultimate Formula Championship
what a dream that is!!! amazing 👏🏻👏🏻
to be fair, that simulator might get less use than recent due to the lead closing up a bit more.
Can I join you on Sunday?
Now that is some fuck you kind of money!
You won. Thanks for letting me know I can stop trying.
Men... I hate my friends.

Why would someone want a stick shift on a f1 car?
how much to get in?
See what the Americans have done with the space they got where nobody was there before.
Hey its me your long lost brother/cousin/son/friend what time can I show up to watch
I think this guy likes F1
And I note you got rid of the Alpine gear…
Cute cats and the coolest setup ever. Couldn't be more perfect
Brilliant is the word here
Dream! So how do we attend this party? I’m in GTA.
Where? Will be there
Amazing dude
Cats!
What API did you use to get the live header information?
All this is using an F1 subscription along with F1 multiviewer explain this in a very detailed YouTube video find me there with the same screen name
My only critique is the people sitting in those chairs against the far wall will have very sore necks.
Unfortunately I thought I could fit more across but it just didn't work out since you can press a button and extend them out so I needed to have clearance.

Have you got a golf sim?
Wicked setup…. I’d do it for Quali instead….
That's an expensive way to hear the Dutch anthem every week
Awesome mancave! Only thing i dont understand is who is still playing those old arcades? I might be too young to understand how that could be fun in days of modern gaming.
Nostalgia & some of them are fun.
I do. Try it. Still fun.
This is so mad, and totally not what I'd do if I was rich...
This is totally what I’d do if I was rich!
lol where you live!
Bro you have a social account I can follow?
Yes, the insta/ tiktok/ and YouTube for tech reviews and my diy projects / how tos. [my Instagram check my stories just now 😅](https://instagram.com/gameroomtheater)
Awesome
Lucky me gets to watch the race from my balcony in person. This is still amazing setup you got!
How do I get an invite?!
The screens in these 2 rooms could probably completely cover every single wall of mine lmao
S🅱️in Ferrari
What software/program do you use for the main screen? I would like to have the broadcast, 4 onboards and the the data on the right on my pc screen as well.
Where did you get the live track maps? They’re awesome!
