Re: Driver's Stations

From what we've learned, a good driver station should have the following things:

1) Be light. Not fun waiting in line holding a 20 pound driver station.
2) A place for the PC, controllers, etc. Clean, and evenly spaced out.
3. A place where the wires can be organized. (Messy wires are a pain in the chassis)
4) A place where all input and output wires can be easily accessible.
5. Preferably have the controls bolted down if possible, or a place for controls to be set.

Overall, something that can be set up quickly, with little to no hassle.
