What’s included in a racing simulator package?
Simple. Everything you need!
Each racing simulator package you’ll find below includes a sim racing cockpit, wheel and wheelbase, pedals, monitors and monitor stand. Plus accessories like a shifter, handbrake and custom built gaming PC.
Plus, we’re open to customising your racing sim package just the way you want it. Don’t need a PC? Want to upgrade your wheel and wheelbase combo? No problem. We can design the racing simulators of your dreams.
Now, let's buckle up, take a pit stop, and break down the key components that make up a high-octane racing simulator package.
Racing cockpit
Your sim racing cockpit seats you at the heart of all the racing action. The racing cockpit is more than just a place to park yourself during the race - it's a highly engineered piece of equipment designed to transport you from your living room straight to the pulsing nerve of a high-octane race track.
The sim racing cockpits we use (including brands like RSEAT, Trak Racer & Playseat) in our racing simulators are built to the highest standards with precision and ergonomics in mind. These sim cockpits perfectly emulate the seating position and posture of real-world racing cars. Each component of the racing cockpit has been carefully considered, so you'll feel like you've just dropped into the driver's seat of a high-performance racing car.
But it's not just about feeling the part, it's about performance too. The sim racing cockpit forms a solid base that keeps all your racing gear - your steering wheel, pedals, and shifter - in just the right position. There's no sliding around or unwanted movement here. Everything stays exactly where you need it to be, letting you focus on what really matters - the race.
Another impressive feature when it comes to the racing cockpits we use is adjustability. Whether you're racing GT or F1, you can quickly adjust your seating position to suit you and your racing style.
And let's not forget about upgrades. You can start out with a basic racing sim package and upgrade your racing rig over time as your tastes change or you want to squeeze more performance from your racing setup. For example, you might have plans to add a motion platform at some point. All the rigs we supply can be upgraded for motion or pretty much anything else you can think of.
Wheel System
A racing simulator package wouldn’t be complete without a wheel system. Our racing bundles use high-performance, direct drive wheelbases that give you hyper realistic feedback so you can ‘feel’ (in real-time) what your race car is doing.
For example, with a direct drive system, you’ll feel vibrations through the drive system, you’ll feel your car hit rumble strips, you’ll even get a very real sense of over and understeer and traction loss!
Take a corner too fast, and you'll feel the racing wheel fighting you as you struggle to maintain control. Hit the brakes, and you'll sense the shift in weight as your car decelerates. It's these subtle details that make the difference between playing a ‘game’ and the adrenaline of realistic racing simulation.
Pedals
Ask any pro sim racer and they’ll tell you that your pedals are the most important piece of your rig. That’s because your pedal control can mean the difference between crushing lap times, or falling far behind your competition.
That’s why it makes sense to ensure your pedals are high-quality and give you the sensation or real pedal feel in game. Going cheap on your pedals can seriously hamper the realism and immersion of your racing simulation experience. That’s why we only include racing pedals we would use ourselves in our racing simulators. Our go-to brand here is Asetek. Both the Forte and Invicta pedals are crafted to the highest standards, fully adjustable and are manufactured in Denmark (not China like a LOT of pedals on the market).
You can start out with the two pedal (throttle and brake) setup or if you’re a purist, opt for the full pedal combo (throttle, brake and clutch) right from the start. The choice is yours. Another great benefit of the pedals we use in our race simulation packages is the ability to upgrade over time and as your needs change. For example, you can add extra elastomer, throttle firming kits and other accessories to your pedal set to change the feel and performance of your pedal set.
And then there's the matter of positioning. Just like in a real race car, the pedal set in our ready-to-race bundles can be adjusted to suit your preferred driving position. This means no matter your size or seat position, you can achieve a perfect pedal position for the most comfortable and realistic racing experience possible.
Monitor Stand and Monitors
A well-designed monitor stand is crucial for creating a stable and adjustable platform for your monitors. The last thing you want is sagging monitors or monitors that don’t line up correctly in a multi-monitor set-up.
Constructed to withstand the vigour of intense racing, we use stands from brands such as Trak Racer and RSEAT. The reason is simple, it’s these tried-and-tested brands that deliver monitor stands with guaranteed stability, preventing any unwanted monitor movement. They're designed to be fully adjustable, allowing you to position your monitors at the perfect height and angle. After all, every racer has their own preference, and adjustability ensures your setup can be tailored to your comfort and optimal racing performance.
Now, let's switch gears and talk about monitors. In a racing simulator package, the monitors are your eyes on the track. They're responsible for delivering high-definition, responsive visuals that keep up with the fast-paced action of the race. Multiple monitors create a panoramic view, expanding your field of vision and enveloping you in the heart of the racing action.
High refresh rates and low response times are critical here, ensuring that every pixel of your car and every speck of the racetrack is rendered beautifully and smoothly. That’s why we only use and recommend top-notch gaming monitors produced by renowned brands such as AOC and Samsung.
Imagine seeing the sun glisten off the tarmac, or the sparks fly as your opponent's bumper grinds against the barrier. This level of detail doesn't just look good - it makes you feel like you're really there. That’s why the monitors we use are built to produce highly detailed graphics that will make you think you’re right there on the track.
Shifter and Handbrake
The shifter is your tool for manually shifting up and down through the gears as you race along. Just like in a real car, nailing the perfect gear shift can be the difference between taking the lead or falling behind. Each click of the shifter as you change gears adds to the realism, immersing you in the full racing experience.
Shifters in our racing simulators come with various settings to cater to different types of racing styles. So, whether you're a fan of the standard H-pattern shifter or the sequential shifter used in rally cars, you can select the one that fits your driving style and your favourite racing titles best.
Likewise, a handbrake can help you execute jaw-dropping drifts, slide around tight corners, or quickly reduce speed when needed. Handbrakes are essential when drifting or rallying.
Quality is critical for both shifters and handbrakes. You need robust, high-endurance pieces that can handle the intense action of racing. We're talking about solid materials and responsive mechanisms that replicate the feel of the real deal.
PC
A high-performance PC is paramount for running the demanding graphics and physics of modern racing games. This is no place for slow processors or skimpy graphics cards. We're talking about powerful CPUs, high-end GPUs, and plenty of RAM to keep your racing experience running smoothly, even with all the visual settings cranked up to the max.
Your PC is the powerhouse that brings the thrilling world of racing to life. It manages everything from the detailed graphics and immersive sound effects, to the complex physics that make every turn, drift, and acceleration feel incredibly realistic. With a good PC, you won't just see the track - you'll feel the grit of the asphalt, the tension of the race, the thrill of the speed.
Storage also matters. With a large SSD, your racing games will load quickly, minimising downtime between races. It also allows you to store multiple games, so whether you're a fan of "iRacing", "Assetto Corsa", or "Project CARS", you can switch between your favourite titles with ease.
But the true magic of the PC in your race simulation package isn't just in its raw power. It's in the way it brings together all the different components of your setup - the racing wheel and pedals, the shifter, the handbrake, the monitors - and translates your actions into in-game movements. This is where you really feel the immersion, the seamless connection between you and your virtual car.
Accessories
Let's not forget the cherry on top of your racing simulator package - the accessories. They may seem small in comparison to the other components we've discussed, but they play a significant role in amplifying your gaming experience. From headphones to seat cushions, these finishing touches can make a big difference to your comfort, immersion, and overall performance.
First up, let's talk about audio. Quality headphones or speakers are a must-have accessory. The roar of the engine, the squeal of tires against asphalt, the cheering of the crowd - all of these sound effects create an enveloping soundscape that transports you right into the heart of the action. Audio quality is a big part of the immersion equation, so don't skimp on it!
Next on the list, comfortable seating. Hours of intense racing can take a toll on your body if you're not well-supported. That's why investing in a quality racing seat and perhaps some added cushions or supports can be a game-changer. The more comfortable you are, the longer you can race, and the more you can enjoy your racing experience.
Other optional accessories include things like button boxes, which give you easy access to additional in-game functions and controls, or VR headsets, which can take immersion to the next level, giving you a 360-degree view of your racing world.
And let's not forget about aesthetics. Customisable LED lighting can add a cool factor to your setup and keep you in the racing mood, even when the sun goes down.
In the end, the right accessories can enhance your comfort, control, and immersion, making your racing experience even more enjoyable and authentic. So, when it comes to your driving simulators, remember to sweat the small stuff. After all, it's the little things that often make the biggest difference.
