I still have my old ThunderSeat. Better than ExLax, but of limited use for
seat o' th' pants driving impressions.

And for the past 6-7 years, we've had good feedback thru the wheel rim.

Finally, of the 5 senses, the visual almost always trumps the rest (unless
yer a dog), so I can live with that.

Simulation means, no these games aren't exactly like driving a real car,
they're as much like driving a real car as a bunch of car-crazy programmers
and high-end h/w engineers can make it.

It's good enuf for me. In fact, I'm lovin' it!
