Is it also suitable / easily convertible to flight simulator duty?
Regarding flight, you can use it for flight but I do not, I think it would take some time to switch over and get your cockpit ergonomics exactly the way you like them. I think most people stick to one at a time, though I'm sure some people switch over.

Regarding pricing, I learned long ago how much seat time you actually get in a car, that's why I did it. I wanted the most affordable, most realistic simulation to accumulate some seat time. I can probably get more seat time in a few days in this than I can in an SBRS season, so it has accomplished it's purpose for training (and still does). It's also very convenient to sit in air conditioning, read a chapter from Speed Secrets and go try it out right away!

While it isn't a replacement for the real thing, it's very good and inexpensive by comparison ($/hour). Now that I've gotten some seat time that some if my friends got growing up karting, I feel good about venturing into the real thing.
