      title should be: You want this in your garage.

        I'd be just as satisfied with a James Crivellone e30 style simulator, a nice big screen TV, and my racing game of choice. Uses much less space and it's much cheaper.

        If I want to sit in a real car and drive it flat out, then there's only one way I want to do that.

          What about front wheel speed sensors/ABS faults?

                  What's the point of burning the gas, while sitting completely still?

                    LOL!!

                    would be a good experiment and see how far of a range your car can go on a full tank of gas without being stranded haha

                      It goes beyond the gas.

                      It's still wear and tear on your vehicle, without actually doing ANYTHING! Except some loud noises under load. The same can be achieved with a regular dyno. Which brings up an actually awesome point.

                      This would be a great addition to a tuners dyno machine. Instead of just doing a pull, you can pull against other vehicles registered in its databank. IF it's a feature... Meaning you can tune your car against other vehicles that have been on the dyno, or are part of a database of tested vehicles from other dynos, while your car is on the dyno itself being tuned. That's a hell of a great idea there.


                      But, as for my personal garage? No, I'll go throw the gears and the the car around the turns in the real world, thank you.

                      A considerably cheaper option.

                          okay okay okay. I'll pander to your worry, which is valid. I wouldn't worry about it, but it is a valid worry.

                          Another considerably cheaper option.







                          :D
                          Indeed, it's fairly pointless in a garage setting.
