Previous Mixed Reality videos recorded using iRacing featured GT3-themed gameplay where Marcel Pfister aimed to display the benefits of the Oculus Rift VR headset while tackling corners in a RUF GT3 machine. The video we are presenting today is exactly the same concept, albeit with one difference major difference: Marcel narrates this video. Listen to his thoughts on flying starts and overtaking at the Inner Loop bus stop while he navigates around Watkins Glen International, the Mecca of North American road racing.
Remember, green-screen technology is what Marcel has used to present all of his Mixed Reality videos published so far, so make sure to take a peek at this tutorial if you feel that setting up this kind of driving experience could be your cup of tea.

Nice video.
Have not really read to much about the requirements of the VR headseat or specific details since many months away from considering one. However am curious if there is a minimum monitor or tv size that will make it beneifical to the VR experience or perhaps that does not that much?
I agree these videos are great reality. As far as I have read the PS4 VR comes with a controller box (processing unit for 2d display audio 3d) attached (at the moment) and also comes with dual hdmi with one hdmi to the tv/monitor of your choice for others to view what you are seeing. I would say it does not matter too much as you will not see the TV and your vision would be the VR over your eyes so it depends on what size/quality you want others to view on. I am not sure if this is the same on PCs/VR that are out already but I guess they all have a cable to view TV separately.
