This $35k Racing Sim Setup Deserves A Place In Your Dream House
A video like this will naturally lead to one question (well, two if you include “why is that man shouting?”) - why would anyone spend so much on a racing sim setup, when the same amount of money would buy a pretty sweet car? It’s a simple answer: generally, if you’re rich enough to blow $35,000 on a cool plaything, you’ll probably be rich enough to own a few fast cars too. After all, even well-off people can’t be racing at the Nurburgring one minute and then Laguna Seca the next.
That said, it’s not the best setup we’ve seen, and those pricey OLED TVs push the price into the territory of systems with features like head tracking and even motion simulation. Although if you’re really rich, you can spend even more: here’s one that costs $185k…

Shame that he sucks at driving…
He was doing that because he was concentrating on video..
“why he is shouting?” Because that is how he presents himself in videos. I love his videos. I watch all his tech reviews 👍👍 love him 😍
This or an E36 M3 hmmm though choices.
Plays with a wheel Doesn’t use cockpit view
How do those TVs have a high enough refeesh rate to deal with proper sim software? The reason most pro sims use computer gaming screens is because they offer unparreled fluid images.

Some people say that once you’ve done this sort of thing in real life, video games are no match / no fun. I disagree. The coolest thing about playing racing games, or even watching snowboarding or surfing videos, is that the more real-world experience you have of doing that activity, the more your body/brain “feels” it when you play/watch that activity; it’s able to fill in the gaps and pull on past experiences of muscle memory, inertia forces, etc to relive the experiences and imagine sensations that are totally different than someone who has never done it in real life. The future of video games and VR is very exciting…
Now remove the screen frames and join the screens together, and im in
Perfect por play Need for speed :)
Legal !!! mais acho que ainda pode melhorar e muito … por exemplo as telas de LDE poderia ser representadas na estrutura de um carro, as telas seriam vidro LATERAIS, PORTAS, TETO E A CARAQUITERISTICA DE CARA CARRO. Com um desaine feito para o objetivo principal de ter a sensação de realmente poder estar dentro de um carro de corrida . IMAGINEI UMA ESPECIE DE CABINE SEM CONTATO COM O EXTERIOR KKKKK
