Towards the end of this program, they show the F1 simulator. It seems to me that factory MX teams would have an advantage if they made a similar simulator for MX. And, obviously, the programming and software is already available for 40$. The only thing needed is a motorcycle-controller on hydraulics and perhaps a gyroscope. Seems to me like all we need is a decent presentation and professionally done blue-print of what could be built to make it just as good as the F1 simulator. All it takes is for JLV to work with doubledragoncc on making a proposal to Redbull and/or one of the factory teams to really put MXS on the map and have it gain the recognition and respect that it deserves from the racing world.

Re: Redbull F1 simulator
But in MX you've got soooo many aspects that can effect the way of riding. Like an ever changing track. On roadracing go's the gamemakers to the track, mesure everything up and then add the bumps in the game. Those bumps won't change during the whole weekend and maybe not the next decate.
While in mx it change's every lap.
Also the weather plays a bigger factor in MX then in F1. If it rains a whole week, but on raceday is it dry, and the track is dry, then is it dry in F1. But in MX will the track be brutal, becouse the rain is maybe gone on the surface of the track but under that surface is there still a shitload of mud.
I'm not saying that a superreal MX simulator is impossible, but it will take much more then 40$ and some years to make one.
