Motion Pro II F1 Simulator

How much is that F1 car you got there? Say what? Never mind that, I’m getting some wheel and paddles for simulations. Sure, you can’t compare the feelings you get while actually driving an F1 car with a mere simulator, but I honestly don’t know who’d spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on the real thing when you can get the coolest F1 simulator around for a small fraction of that cost.

Motion Pro II by CXC Simulations looks to be the latest most impressive F1 simulator. It’s got no less than three 46” 1080p LCD displays aligned horizontally plus a Logitech Z-5500-like 505-watt 5.1 surround sound system capable of 1,010 watts peak power, and those are only the visual and the audio aspects. You also get four vibration transducers in sync with the surround sound system, and full motion simulation using electro-mechanical actuators to move the seat.

CXC Simulations claims that the combination of the actuators and the sound system vibration transducers provides an almost-real feeling of being inside a cockpit (of course, we’re not counting the G-forces and neck injuries). Additionally, you can go ahead and pimp up the simulator with like a six-speed gated shifter and progressive clutch, or a sequential shifter, handbrake, a full carbon fiber external, with high-gloss finish custom paint. One of the coolest features is the network play support. The simulator allows you to play with 16 other Motion Pro II owners around the world and comes with optional radio kits to taunt the opponents.
