I-Sim Awarded Driving Simulator Contract for Cossatot Technical College

    SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 30 -- I-Sim Corporation, a leading
developer and manufacturer of driving-simulation equipment, today announced it
has sold a TranSim(TM) truck driving simulator to Cossatot Technical College
of DeQueen, Arkansas.
    The TranSim simulator teaches drivers of every experience level the proper
way to shift a variety of transmissions over a wide range of grades while
pulling an assortment of loads.  The TranSim allows a trainer to simulate more
than 140 transmissions and over 280 different engines from a variety of
manufacturers.  The simulator provides instantaneous miles-per-gallon feedback
to drivers and trainers, helping them improve fuel economy through better
shifting.  Fuel savings with the TranSim can amount to $40,000 to $100,000 per
100 drivers each year.
    "Since our students began using the TranSim, we have noticed a significant
decrease in the wear and tear on our trucks," said Mike Kinkade, dean of
technology at Cossatot Tech.  "Students trained with the TranSim already know
how a truck is going to feel and how the clutch and transmission work before
they even begin driving, so there is a lot less gear grinding."
    "We are thrilled with the response we have received from the TranSim,"
said Reginald Welles, president and CEO of I-Sim.  "It has made a dramatic
improvement in the training and education of truck drivers across the
country."
    Founded in 1991, Cossatot Technical College trains approximately 125
drivers each year.  Cossatot's seven-week training course provides drivers
with a Commercial Driver's License.  The college is headquartered in DeQueen,
Arkansas.
    Headquartered in Salt Lake City, I-Sim Corporation is a leading developer
of high-performance wheeled-vehicle simulators for driver training in the law
enforcement, trucking, military, research and emergency-vehicle markets.
I-Sim's simulators provide highly realistic driving experiences without the
risk and expense associated with real-world training.  For more information
