Very nice, although the video is about 4 minutes longer than necessary.

It is quite impressive. I don't think I've ever seen a simulator (for this type of purpose) that reacts quite so violently. My first thought was, "I want it". But by the end of the video one quickly realizes this will likely end in tears. After a few hours of use, the best case scenario is the TV stops working, as I don't think it's designed to take that kind of abuse. The worst case scenario is this loon and all his equipment crash through the floor into the apartment below and he ends up dead or in the hospital for 3 months.

I want to know what happens when he hits a wall in-game at full throttle.

Haha! That's what I thought. Considering the jerk-like reactions he programmed with accleration and braking... he must be thrown clear of the chair!

I`m not so sure.. It's a bit too 'shakey' for my taste (a sort of residual feedback, like it goes WOOP (woop, woop, ...), but the 'force' itself isn't that much that his head movements would seem out of proportion for a dude strapped to an high powered racing car..
