Did I just see AMS2 on the BBC?

    I had the TV on tuned in to BBC1 whilst talking to the missus. I wasn't really watching it but then I heard the words "sim rig like the F1 teams use" used. I looked round and saw one of the One Show presenters having a go on AMS2 on a large triple monitor setup. A team of disabled drivers called Team Brit looked like they were using it to get ready for competing in what looked like the Britcar championship.
    Did anyone else see it to confirm it was AMS2?

    Yeah it was definitely AMS2. You can watch it on the iPlayer. Piece starts about 30mins in.

    Oh for goodness sake. Now I’ve got to watch the bloomin’ One Show. The One Show I actively try to avoid because it’s so pointless and fluffy as well as flitting uncomfortably between an article on children with cancer immediately into one about a squirrel with big nuts.

    Now, where’s my remote?

    :whistle::D

    Don’t forget the theme tune. An utter abomination. Seems to have been composed entirely out of balloons.

    I can’t help but sing along, only it seems right to change “One” to “Why.” It just fits better. :)

    I don't know what show your all talking about but it sounds like "the project" here in Australia.

    Every country seems to have its fair share of tea time “family friendly” saccharine b*llocks. Same sh*t different name.

    I wouldn't call the project "family friendly" unless you want them all brainwashed :rolleyes:

    I don't know what the BBC showed, but ACC is used for the GT Challenge.
    Perhaps there are more challenges

    The championship was previously staged on the Project CARS platform before switching to Forza Motorsport, which featured a greater selection of GT3 and GT4 machinery, plus a livery editor allowing for the recreation of detailed real-world British GT designs. Now it will move again to the critically accliamed official GT World Challenge game, Assetto Corsa Competizione.

    Are you stuffed full of prozac and incapable of connecting with your immediate family? We've got the One Show, just for you!
