Hey Guys I recently comes across this new Race simulator in Richmond and its quiet simply awesome.

I would highly recommand all your local guys to go check it out. It is extremely realistic and you will be able to compare your times with all the local players.

Heres the link to their website http://vf1motorsports.com/

They are still at a developing stage at this point, however if theres enough interest they will open up a shop with maybe 20 or more of these things. By then there can be tournaments and some series competition.

I think you guys will like this.

I hope he doesn't go crashing into China Building like that cop did all those years ago! God, that photo brings back so many memories. I was on that street for almost 17 years.
