The admin of r3vlimited, one of the e30 forums (the main one I like) put this together. everything is hooked up and works. its all wired through the key, too, so if you wreck/stall you have to restart the ignition!

that would be pretty simple to rig up if you had a car dash and seat sitting around. its all on/off switches.

i might need to rig up a little setup for mario kart wii except use a go kart type frame.

i was just thinking this would be great with the side views set up too…

or…an entire car shell and make a setup like this? monitors in place of windows? surround sound? maybe some variable speed dc fans to blow your hair around when you start going fast? hahaha…

oh, and airbags to deploy when you hit a wall… simulation or fail. hah

I remember watching a video of some guys who took a wrecked car and did this. They put a cloth over the windshield and projected the screen onto it.
