I was at HP's corporate welcome centre in the Melb CBD yesterday and had a go on this.
An HP Omen gaming PC, the cube mounted on the bonnet, a 32" curved screen, what looked like a Thrustmaster TS-XW Sparco wheel with Thrustmaster pedals. The box was running PCARS2. I had bang around Bathurst in a Toyota 86 race car. Not too bad once I'd dialled out the wheels dead zone and adjusted the force feedback sensitivity. The pedals had very light springs compared to my modified logitech pedals and the the wheel felt quite dull too. But PCARS2 on the gaming box was really good, fast responsive, clear graphics, good sound through the headphones. Don't know what the box's specs were though.
Oh and they had a bunch of Triple 8 racing stuff in there too, like wheel nuts, drive shafts, a used front splitter off an ex Lowndes car and these used tyres...
