Surge and traction loss are linear forces and tipping the seat or rig is not a realistic way of simulating them. It just feels like you’ve got soft suspension! The STL is a surge and traction loss motion platform for PC and console (requires console controller). It simulates accelerating, braking and gear shifts by moving the whole rig forwards and rearwards. With a pivot point at the front, it also simulates loss of traction by swinging the rig left or right.

    I have the predecessor of this as two separate units. I was a real single-seater racer in the 80’s and 90’s so I know what the real thing feels like when you “lose the back-end”, the effects of this unit are realistic enough to trigger all my reflexes in all the right places.

    I have the TL platform which adds so much to my sim, great bit of kit!
    I race a GP3 single seater in the real world and use my sim a lot before tests. It’s important for the correlation to be accurate. The TL platform really helps add the immersion of rear end instability.
    Highly recommend!
    Simon from emotion has been on hand for setup and tuning all the way, super quick to reply, even at weekends!
