No idea what company makes that one though.

Pretty cool force dynamics model though:

Yeah, some of the movements look WAY too extreme... I don't think the front end of the car lifts up 30° on acceleration. :lol

But it's still pretty awesome... and I'll buy one if I win >$10M lottery. :p

to get it to actually have the kinds of forces you get in a car, you're gonna need rather extreme looking movements like that.

you are not really driving the car... so you need EXTREME movement to simulate the car motion.

it isn't simulating the cars motion. it is simulating the g-force you feel in a car.

Damn.. I'd love to have one of those. Don't think I'd ever leave my house :p

I wonder what the simulator are like for F1 drivers?

as some have already said, it's simulating the g-force.
So you get that pull when the car accelerates. You're not actually doing a wheelie.
It only tilts up like that so gravity sucks you back into the seat.

I'll hate to crash head on into a wall with that thing. Gonna give me real back/neck problems.

i think he's playing live for speed. its one awesome simulator that you have to try out if you think you're god in need for speed.

lol the engadget one looked like the guy was doing a rodeo simulation

I'm doing a degree in electrical engineering and watching the video makes me want to build one.

how much would you guys pay for one of these? If it's profitable I can start a business making these things.

actuators/amp/controller for just one of the legs look like it'd cost 1-2k

Looks pretty damn cool and fun, but i was hoping to see him crash and go through the window or atleast the table in front. lOL
