Crashed a virtual Porsche at Brands Hatch - and it sounded fantastic
xCruzo Brief
A test at SIM Motorsport’s race centre in Brands Hatch put Innit Audio under pressure by letting a driver hear, not just see, what a track car is doing. The setup uses four D-BOX actuators for motion and Porsche GT3 race-car hardware for the pedals, while crashes in the Porsche 992 GT3 sim quickly become a lesson in how convincing the sound can be. Innit processes the game’s audio and boosts cues like tyre noise and changing revs. Drivers also wear a Panasonic SoundSlayer speaker around the neck. Coached by Tom Ovenden, the session ran on the Brands Hatch Indy circuit, starting in a Caterham 270R before switching to the Porsche.
