Last evening I was invited to the showing of the newest, most awesome racing simulator. It was being introduced at the Petersen Automotive Museum.
The details are below.
If you have the chance to see it, it looked impressive.
A computer-controlled electro-magnetically actuated full-motion system combines with tactile transducers, force-feedback controls and state-of-the-art audio and high-def video systems to create a startlingly realistic experience - audio, visual and tactile excitement available heretofore only in professional simulators costing many times more.
FOR THE RIDE OF YOUR LIFE
You’ll feel every sensation of the car you’re driving, be it a vintage, modern or F1 Ferrari (and other lesser marques, too, of course). Accelerate, Brake or corner hard, you’ll feel it. Hit a bump, aquaplane on water, drop a wheel off in the dirt or just get aggressive with an apex curb, you’ll feel it.
The CXC Motion-Pro II Simulator is designed to be easily user-configured. For the pro or serious enthusiast, the difficulty level can be set high, a choice of clutch and gearshift modes made available, as well as complex - and authentic - setup options to fine tune every aspect of the chosen vehicle. For novices and promotional use, everything can be dialed back and simplified and shifting made automatic. The simulator can be set at any skill level between professional and novice – and the settings ‘saved.’
Software options enable a user to drive virtually any car on any track. And with a high-speed internet connection, multiple users anywhere in the world can compete in real-time.
Whatever your skill level, whether you’re looking for a learning experience or the ultimate thrill ride, come drive the next step in racing simulations.
It will move you.
Join us for an eye-opening evening of rides, demonstrations, food and libations.
