I found this online while looking over videos about the ZR-1 . Looks like a way to drive your Z in the winter or when you need a ZR-1 fix or perhaps even some track time . I will be getting this as I live in the north ... Interesting points this simulation game player makes .

I have not played a video game in 20 years. Could never get past level one of Leisure Suit Larry. Boy has the technology evolved! Something to look foward to after they take away my driver's license when I get in my 90's. Winter is good in California. George.

Haha . Leisure Suit Larry . Played that long ago . Now that was one silly game . I used to play vid racing games during the week at the arcade before heqding off to the track to race . I was doing that in the 80's before it became common place for race car drivers to do a bit of sim track time . It's a really good learnig tool and fun at the same time to sim and with the tech of today , can be quite realistic .

OK, I'm grinding away with my Honda Fit trying to earn the 82,000 to buy the ZR-1 ;)

Too funny lol !!! Awesome ! .
So how is that Fit after 100mph . I drove the real thing and it just began to float and move around after a 100 mph so I backed off . It is not at all like a Honda Civic which is extremely stable at a 140+ mph .

:cheers:

You bet. And the nice thing is my grandkids are too young to play well so I can beat them :p

Oh, it's a track rat above 100 mph :p Actually, one the novice tracks I can barely get it to 100mph before the next corner.

When a first place finish is only worth 4,000 points, it takes a little while, but I finally secured the prize :)

So how does the Z drive ?

I don't have a playstation . Been tryin to find a PC version but the free version floating around on the web is just malware and virus laden .

Have fun

Seems realistic. If you get on the throttle before the apex, you'll kick the rear end out :-D

160mph on the back straight at Indy seems reasonable to me. I had the (real) Z on the track at Indy, but we were limited to 90mph :(
