No need for any fancy introduction, just click on the image to the left and take a look at what is probably the best home-entertainment race simulator ever created - the VRX MACH 4. Not only is it powered by 4 Xbox 360s (Elite) linked together outputting 4 Teraflops of raw processing power, but it also sports 3 Sharp Aquos LCD's, with a fourth 7" LCD monitor acting as a rear view mirror.

According to a report coming from VRX Industries, the design and development of the VRX MACH 4 Prototype began in the fall of 2006.

"Our goal is to eclipse the success of the VRX PRO (launched with the original Forza Motorsport)," said Robert Stanners, President, VRX Industries Ltd. "With the success of Forza Motorsport 2, we are confident to surpass all expectations. VRX is committed to total excellence in developing the Ultimate Race Simulator by being the world's first to combine a total of 4 LCD's which completely immerses the driver in the virtual race environment. VRX Industries goal is to give drivers the true and complete sense and feeling of speed; taking the sensation further beyond the tactile feedback system of the Buttkicker and Bose Acoustimass 10 sound system by adding a Virtual Wind System powered by 2 dual Honeywell Fans."

Without further ado, here are the product's specifications which speak for themselves:
