Pics on the way :) give me a couple of mins,

Had ago on every simulator at the event.

I had to que for the Circuit De La Sarthe one because a whole Family went on it and they were all 3 year old children and could not reach othe pedals :@, So that was 45 mins waiting. I know for a fact that the track was not visually updated and was just a straight port from the GT4 one reason i saw was because when your on the main straight driwing down and breaking for the first chicane on the advertsiement it still showed Playstation 2 not 3, So thats a big giveaway i didnt spot any updates on the course so i think it's fair to say it's a port.
On the Lotus Evora had to wait just 5 mins as there was a 2 minute limit which was a good idea and gives everyone a fair go. It handles like the Elise but a little more sharper and tiny bit quicker. Car is great! :).
Then had ago on the Nissan Pods as you can see in the pictures. Im the one with Orange T _ Shirt lol. The pods are soooo comfortable even for my arse! XD very good fun and there was no wait for these at first in the morning since i went early, but later in the day there were huge ques!
Also had ago on the Renault Simulator which i was first on and won an F1 Team Renault ING MP4 Player which was very neat and i found it very easy to do :), also they had the VXR Simulator outside at the Vauxhall Tent which was a 30 min que, The game was built into a British Touring Car and was good fun too.

And yet it's still the best way to enjoy the cars aesthetics ,I love looking at the F430 back while driving !

Cockpit view is best for the cars sound. one thing i don't understand is why there is no reverse lights. although you shouldn't really be in reverse.
 
i had a different track from you! i had london. guess the car was the same as it was outside the GTR stand.

i couldnt be bothered to wait for the le mans track. about 4 kids infront of me so would be waiting for ages.

is the force feedback always that low on the DFP cause it felt rubbish.
