Yeah wouldn't it be more realistic to drive something less like a simulator and more like, say, a car?
Surely you could get get several S type Jaguars for a million quid?

oh thats another, affects on crashes etc due to sat navs mobile phones etc. even the mirrors have the roda in real time in them with the cars etc. quite impressed really. toyota have built one but won`t let on how much it cost. the guy reckons it would have been around £250 million pounds, now thats a whole load of cars

 

[brucelee]

yeah still worth it if it teaches the other side how to drive

would love a go at one for fast jets ie military style lol
