Ferrari F1 Trainer Machine
Asking price $15,000 USD.
I've got good news, if you don't know what this machine does, you probably don't need it. I doubt anyone here would be interested in such a machine, unless if you're the amateur racer. But since it's a car forum, I thought I'd give it a shot.
I never really used this machine, it's still in its shipping crate.
Specially developed by Technogym® for Michael Schumacher, recommended for physical training for motor racing, and is available with Momo Design bucket seat and special Ferrari helmet.
This machine was designed to exercise neck muscles to withstand the high g-forces generated by Ferrari’s competition cars, the driver’s helmet is attached to cables which, in turn, are connected to a system of weights. The force required can be adjusted from 2.5 to 15 kg (5.5-33 lbs). Two further cables can be attached to the rear of the helmet to reproduce braking and acceleration forces.
This machine simulates G-Forces on the neck that is present when maneuvering in all cars.

Thanks Enrique, glad you can appreciate it. You know, they're not as rare as you think, apparently two other friends I know have one in their households.

Sorry man, if you resided closer, I'd consider it. Additionally, my neighbor has a car that can move it. I'd have to FedEx Customs Critical this item to you. Your intuition is correct, I am giving this in lieu of a red envelope.
