Okay, it's X-mas time and my wife wanted to know what she should get me.
I'm thinking some add-ons for my PC to improve the realism of the
"auto-simulator". I've got a TSW wheel already, but what else is
available to make the experience more realistic?

I've got GPL, and find the realism fantastic, but obviously it falls
short of my real-life experiences. Can anyone help out?

Thanks,

/greg

If your a freak! like me I have a pumping stereo system cranked up with a
crt projector on a 120" big screen, Force feedback wheel . If you want vr
it will cost ya about 2 grand or you can have a full fleged simulator with
hydraulics for only $200,000 :) at www.desktopsims.com (wish I had one)

Get someone to park a car outside your window and run a hose from the
tailpipe venting in front of your face. Get some really powerful fans and
point them at your face. Have someone throw handfuls of sand into them, too.
Make sure you are wearing a helmet and gloves when you drive. Get a quartz
heater and point it at your back about a foot away. Get someone to spritz
oil in your face when a car in front of you blows up. If you crash, have a
neighborhood hoodlum beat you up or kill you.

Ha! LOL, daxe

And every once in a while (particularly during the summer races) someone
should come around and squish flies and beetles between your teeth.
