Putting some thought into going iRacing.  Before making any purchases I'd like to know what CPU / wheel / pedals you are using.
1. Do I need to go with Fanatec stuff?  Seems a bit pricey to me
2. What hardware specs is the computer you use?  I read clockspeed is more important than # of cores.  Any truth to that?
CPU:
RAM:
Video Card:

We have a group of COM members that run a series in iRacing. At the moment, we are running every other Wednesday evening. Please join us. 
You don't need Fanatec. You can run a cheap logitech setup, or a fancy Fanatec, just like you can track a beat civic, or a new Porsche. One will arguably provide a better experience for you.
I'll let someone else reply about the computer stuff. I got everything i use used - Wheel, pedals, computer, etc.

I had a geek friend build me one off of one he had laying around with a i7 core already in it.  He gave me a good deal for it.  This is my machine and I can run it at max setting iirc.
Intel i7 4790 Quad-Core 3.6GHz
Taisol 2 ball bearing CPU fan and cooler
HyperX Fury 16GB RAM (4GB x 4)
512 GB SSD + Seagate Barracuda Pro 1TB 7200 RPM HDD
GeForce GTX 1060 3GB Graphics Card
Intel N-7260 Dual Band Wireless Card
Windows 10 64-Bit Professional Addition
I run a Logitec G27 used setup from Chad Fox and built the frame to house it with an old race seat. Works well.

I think you probably want to add monitors to the spec list.
