Austin Meyer of X-Plane / Laminar Research is Making an Uber-Realistic Street-Car Driving Simulator!
Austin seems to be working on a hyper-realistic driving (consumer and high-performance road car) simulator going by a sparse mention of a email (Yahoo Group x-plane news) news release and a some of the improvements in the X-Plane 8.50 betas. They are mainly road traffic and a greatly enhanced landing gear tire traction model. These are probably code from the top-secret driving sim being cross-implemented back into the X-Plane 8.50 betas.
