If only I had the time to take advantage of something like this.

Oh, and a helluva lot of money to build it

^^ A pneumatic robot?

Seriously though, the possibilities are endless with a setup like this! Except you'd need your own team of engineers to re-program it

Well very old but still cool to see.

I drove one of those *not as high in the air and it was an actual car body, but still hydrolycs*

I honestly believe that these are less realistic then just being stationary. The way you are thrown around in these things is nothing like driving a real car...It just doenst feel right at all, and it simply dont generate enough G to give any feel, you are just thrown around which is no fun.

^^ True, such systems are best suited for flight models, not driving models.

Sweeeeet, but as said before, perfect for flight models, and a lot cheaper than this...

I've been seeing this video since 2004 including the above mentioned rally game (RBR) sim setup.. Both are Insane, but I think it's time for something new and CHEAP :p
