rec.autos.simulators

It seems to be geared more for flight sims (which I'm into much less
than racing sims), but has direct support for a few racing sims as well,
like GTR and LFS.  (There may be more....)  It also reportedly has
indirect support for GPL through the GPLShift utility.

I'm curious about how worthwhile this thing is for racing sims, how easy
it is to install and use, whether it requires it's own power (other than
what's supplied through USB), and whether it supports other racing sims
either directly or indirectly.

Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Now, where are those eyeglasses with 1280x1024 with head tracking gear
for a reasonable price???

couple it with a dual head nvidia card outputting true 3d stereo (separate
left right eye images through each output) and youve got the worlds most
advanced monitor for computer ***. Trully immersive ***.

cool!

the technology is here now, the 3d stereo works really really well (ive only
used it in anaglyph and lcd shuttered modes, but im reliably informed that
the nv cards dual headed stereo modes work really well using polarisation on
a single screen or 2 monitors offset too - small jump from there to 2 lcds
in front of your eyes). If only someone would produce a hires HMD with head
tracking a la Track IR for consumers that didnt cost stupid money.
