Angus and I went on that thing when I went to visit him. Its a fun ride, but it doesn't react properly to all the things your seeing on the screen, its also slow.. not just the whole machine, but the trucks only go like 30mph and accelerate SLOWLY! But it was fun, I'll admit that.. mabey it would have been better if the sim you played was MTM2 lol.

Oh, it also doesn't have any sound Image

What you're forgetting is just how much fun it is to do wheelies, go up or down hills, and get 'er upside down. Just before our ride was up, I was frantically trying to flip it over. It's a tad odd, because there's a button on the side of the steering wheel that both takes over the driving duties, or, if you're already driving, puts you back right-side-up after flipping over. Aside from the slow, delayed reactions, slow truck, strange button, and bizarre steering wheel placement (on the roller coaster-style harness), it was absolutely fantastic, and I'm going back with Driven_Out on Saturday after work. I'm looking forward to it.

*edit* I started writing this just before Driven_Out posted his message, so this was in response to Karm's message. *edit*

Went on it again, with D_O this time. Actually, I went alone, because our combined weight is way too high. It was a real blast, and I managed to get 'er upside down a few times Image

A rather disgusting note: The entire thing stank of vomit, and there were stains all over the screen. Yech....
