Hi all,

I have a racing wheel and pedals but no room in the office where my PC is to set it up (was originally for Xbox). I want to use the spare TV I have and set it up as a racing rig. My issue is I would want to set it up in the next room. Is this possible as I describe below or will it not work for some reason.

Long HDMI lead to TV from g-card (10m maybe)
Long USB extension lead (10m)
Powered USB hub to plug mouse keyboard and wheel into on end of USB extension lead
I guess duplicate the display on the TV when its on

Fire it up and race... :)

Will this work or are the cables lengths going to cause me issues... Advice or suggestions would be gratefully received.

thanks
