    Here is a quick pic of random leftovers I brought back from the event.
     


    Sorta funny, but I drove the screen home in a crate in the back of a truck instead of FedExing it back. When we drove through the Hoover Dam area, Homeland Security had me open the crate to inspect it with a single screwdriver. Talk about PITA. Big random crate in the back of a truck + national landmarks = inspection headaches while enjoying vacation on the way home.

    The build was a collaboration between AMD, ImmersaView, Virtual-GT, CodeMasters and iRacing. You guys ought to check out the Virtual-GT site. That simpit was awesome to race in. It had four motion actuators that threw you around and the sound system in it could do 110db.
     
    I basicly had it dialed in Tuesday night. Most of Wednesday durring keynote practice AMD and the AV tech guys were all having fun on it inbetween final prep for Thursday.
     
    The real surprise for me in all of it was I've never used iRacing before. That racing sim was really fun to drive.

    I been racing there since Feb 2010 and it is the best i have ever seen and my first real race with them i finshed 5th in the Daytona 500 for my rookie split which was 200 real laps and 43 cars..
     
    Also raced in the Nationwide 399 at Tally and finshed 3rd in that one so it's the closet to really being there..
     
    Also love the work you did building that awsome sim..

    Here is a random pic from one of the keynote intermissions. When the keynote had an intermission the crowd would shuffle out to the entry where the setup was. It got pretty crowded.
