I Made a Real MS-DOS Sim Rig And It BLEW MY MIND!

I've been playing retro racing sims on DOSBox for years now. But is it actually authentic? How was it REALLY in the 90s?

In this video we're going to build the rig and then test it with Microprose Grand Prix 2 and Papyrus IndyCar Racing 2. Prepare to be surprised!
