  • Patent number: 6505503
    Abstract: The vehicle drag racing simulation system includes a drag racing simulation area typically for a plurality of vehicles, such as a flatbed of a truck. A restraining assembly is provided for rigidly securing the vehicles to the platform in a generally upright position. A rotatable drive wheel support member is also provided in each drag racing simulation area, having an outer face for rotatably engaging the drive wheels of the vehicles. The rotatable drive wheel support member is operatively engaged with an eddy current braking device allowing the application of a braking torque for simulating drag racing inertial, aerodynamic, and frictional forces. A brake torque sensor and control unit are provided for feedback control of the application of braking torque applied by the eddy current braking device based upon desired brake torque and actual brake torque applied.
