VW Scirocco transformed into virtual simulator

A couple of gaming nerds managed to take a standard VW Scirocco and weaved some engineering magic into it, transforming it into a virtual simulator. All major controls in the car such as the steering wheel, gas and brake pedals, and gear stick have been attached to the in-game controls for that added touch of realism. Why the VW Scirocco, you ask? Well, all the controls are handled electronically instead of mechanically, making the transition a whole lot easier without causing any damage to the car. To top it off, a projector is mounted into the car and is complemented by an improved speaker system. Best of all is, you won’t need to fork out a single cent for gas.
