Somebody Loan Me $9800

GT Sim.JPG

Chris sent this to me this AM … Chris, like I, has a bad Jones for racing games, racing sims, and, although I’ve never asked, I bet Chris likes flight sims and other games as well.

What is pictured here, he found on eBay. It’s an all-in-one racing deal. Not only does it have a wheel and pedal controller, but also a 42″ Panasonic Plasma TV, speakers (including a subwoofer) as well as a built in PS2 and on board computer system with PC games such as the F-1, GT Racing, Le Mans, etc.

All for the low low price of US $9,800.00. If you buy it now!

Now I can’t vouch for this system myself, never having used one. I personally own a Hyperstimulator, which is all folded away, nice and neat in my garage (since I got really pissed an Bill Gates and his PC platform and said “Screw games on the PC!!!” one day). And although the owners/posters (perhaps the builders?) claim that the Virtual GT Racing Simulator is ” … by far the best simulator available under $20K.” I’d say it’d be hard pressed to beat the hyper unit for wheel & pedal feel.

Anyway, that’d be up to you and your money.

And room. You’d need lots of room, ideally a spare room, to keep his guy in. It seems to be about 7 feet by 4 feet by 5 feet. No exact figures are given, and I bet it also weighs a ton.

C’mon, one of you guys out there has to buy this thing.
