The Ultimate Xbox 360 Racing Setup

From Gizmodo :
Just bought an Xbox 360 racing wheel after the price drop last week? Well take a look at this setup reader Robert’s friend gave himself for his birthday and drool.
Not only does it have a leather racing chair, the Xbox 360 racing wheel and 5.1 surround speakers, he somehow got the display to split over three Samsung HDTVs. Our only question is how the hell did he do that? We didn’t know PGR supported multi-monitors. – Jason Chen
I don’t play racing games on a regular basis. I used to play Forza on and off but I never raced the cars. I stayed in the garage, painting and decorating them. I found that it upset me when the cars crashed and got their paint scratched up so I opted to not race them and simply make them pretty. If I had a setup like this however, I would race all the time.
Happy birthday indeed.
Yikes. I don’t really do racing games, but that’s pretty darn cool.
I wish I had enough room for this!
I wish I had enough money for this! I couldn’t find any info on how much he spent on everything, but can you imagine the final bill for this room?!
I wish I knew how he got it to split to 3 screens, if in fact he did and this isn’t Photochopped.
I found this Burritoh -
Seeing Triple with the Matrox TripleHead2Go but can’t tell if you can do it with tvs too or just computer monitors. I don’t understand all the jargon so I can’t tell if is useful to you or not. I hope it is though!
It’s Forza Motorsport. Forza supports multi-screening. You need a xbox/360 and a copy of Forza per screen and network them together. An option will appear on each one to set to other views. Ex. Center, Left, Right and I believe it supports one for a rear-view mirror. Forza 2 is also be capable of doing this.
That seems like a waste of good moola… just saying.
