Well said - That is a good description.
Also, last season, WPI was kind enough to supply a page on their Think Tank site where you could download 5th Gear (and you can still (now) pull down last year's Lunacy simulation). When we release this season's version we will tell you where/how to download it.
The 5th Gear page in the WPI Think Tank is here:
5th Gear Lunacy. Once you get into the Think Tank site, I recommend browsing around a bit. There is a lot of good info there from the clever folks at WPI and from elsewhere.
The main CD thread for the 2009 (Lunacy) 5th Gear is here:
2009 (Lunacy) 5th Gear thread In that thread you can find links to some YouTube videos and other info.
By searching Chief Delphi using "5th Gear" you can find other discussions and can find links to some other simulators with varying degrees of realism and/or slick graphics. However, I think 5th Gear is the only one that gives you 6-player, 3D, decent rules fidelity, and decent physics realism in a single integrated package.
