		<description>interesting. i had a chance to try that seat together with rfactor at the games convention in leipzig. i had no idea that they had intentions to mass produce it. i thought it was just to show off the wheel.

well i guess i can give you guys a short review then.

first of all i&#039;m a very tall guy (about 6&#039;4&quot;). i had a hard time fitting my long legs in this thing. the seat is adjustable but i couldn&#039;t get it far enough from the wheel to be comfortable. also the seat is very tight, kinda like the seat of a kart which could be a problem for big guys or people with a wide hip bone.

but once you get seated, the immerson just blows you away! i don&#039;t know what kind of 5.1 system they used but it looks exactly like that in the pictures. the screaming of that pcc gt3 was just awesome. :grin: 
seriously! i&#039;ve never heard such good sound in a game before!
it really felt like i was in that car! i would say it&#039;s so realistic that you might even get a tinnitus after a few hours of racing. just like in a real gt3 car. :D

the 3 screens are nice, but you will need a very fast system to power that. i don&#039;t know exactly what they used to feed these screens. they are 1920x1200 monitors and i couldn&#039;t see much of a downscale blur. i guess it was a matrox triple-head connected via dual-link dvi, so they could get 3x 1680x1050 out of it. and i have to say the framerate was pretty low. but i was more interested in the steering wheel, so i didn&#039;t ask about the video card(s) they used.

the wheel itself i very nice. none of that cogwheel-feeling you get with a logitech. but i guess there are more than enough reviews of the fanatec out there already. i can&#039;t say much about the pedals really the guy at the fanatec booth had disabled the clutch.

btw, Dave you have to climb inside.</description>
