Ferrari simulator

 This a simulator with a projection that surrounds the driver.

The car sits on top of giant hydraulic shocks that tilt the car to give it the feel of reality.

How real was it?  At one point I went into a turn too fast and was headed into a cement barricade.  I screamed.  After I crashed (and didn't die) I thought, "It's a frickin' simulator, you moron."

My friend Abood commented on how I was covered with sweat when I got out.  "It was hot in there," I replied, belying the fact I had nearly peed my pants.

  1. That is SO COOL! I was wondering how real it could possibly be because the "simulated" roller costers are pretty lame.
    BTW you looked pretty good in that red Ferrari!
