If you are a racing fan then boy do we have a setup for you. Available at Costco.com for the meager price of $4499.99 is the “Home Pro Racing Simulation System”…clever name huh. With a price that high you would think that it comes with the TV built in. Nope, the price will only get you the unit itself, you will have to spend another 2k on a HDTV to make this bad boy worth it. Personally I don’t care much about racing immersion simulators but if they wanted to send me one free to test I would have no problems with that (crossing fingers).

By the way I just wanted to point out that this thing is more expensive then my first two cars!

    Whoa, thats way to expensive! You could buy a wireless wheel and surround sound system and build one of those for about 1/8 the cost of this ripoff!

    It is literally cheaper to get into real racing than to buy this racing simulator with everything you need. You can go to school, get your amateur license, even build yourself a car and start competing in some of the lower classes all for the same price.

    no you can’t. u guys r dreaming in color LOL. this is a very decent price for something with the build quality of this unit – and you obviously have never gotten into racing LOL – its MUCH more expensive than this. you guys crack the other 99% of us up. really. :D

  • Theflyingtiger says:

    Agreed with Cybermind ^^ Maintenance, tires, brakes, fuel etc. even for entry level racing will easily outcost this sim, which will never require you to re-build it the night before you race it with only a couple hours to spare because you spun a bearing on the last race of the afternoon =P among other things.
