The simulators were developed for Mitsubishi by technophiles Rodney Robertson and Associates and began with two Mitsubishi Lancers and got waaaay more complex from there. The idea was to build two linked rally car replicas and have them side-by-side with the choice of two very large rear projection screens in front of the cars, or where space and circumstances dictated a lesser set-up, two large bonnet-mounted Plasma panel displays. The experience is VERY realistic. rally simulators, even if judged solely by the length of the queues waiting to strap into th genuine rally seats, in the genuine rally cars that simulate the rally driving experience with more authenticity than you would have thought possible.

It seems a little overboard, but why not go even more overboard and make the windshield a monitor and have the incar view ultra-super realistic?? biggrin.gif

My question however is does the rally car actually move about? Like on the bumpy track, does the car actually shake? I dont see any hydrolics or anything for it...

I went to the mall once and went to the "Nascar silicone motor speedway". Yeah, it's Nascar but it was damn realistic. You sit in a full scale car, strap yourself in and you have 3 huge ass projectors surrounding the car. It felt very realistic but it's about $10 a race and they even require that you have a drivers license to play it O_O
