Racing simulator chassis

Scope:

Our customer approached us to provide another set of revised ‘VR5’ racing simulator chassis.
These are designed to take a racing seat, pedal box, steering wheel and monitor – and be mounted on electronically operated actuators to simulate car racing.

A high quality finish is extremely important for this premium product – Finished in RAL 9005 black powder coat over both steel and aluminium structures.

Solution:

Project REF: AD-2126-2022-03-2 / 12075-P1

Car racing simulators are widely used by both professional and amateur drivers for training, development, and performance enhancement. Here are some key reasons why:

🧠 1. Skill Development Without Real-World Risk

• Safe learning environment: Simulators allow drivers to practice challenging scenarios (e.g., wet weather, tire blowouts, crashes) without physical danger.

• Muscle memory: Repeated practice of braking points, gear changes, and racing lines helps develop reflexes and precision.

🕹️ 2. Track Familiarisation

• Learn new circuits: Drivers can study unfamiliar tracks and memorise layouts, corners, and braking sones.

• Adapt to layout changes: For tracks that undergo modifications, simulators help drivers adapt before arriving in person.

💸 3. Cost Efficiency

• Cheaper than track time: Avoids the expenses of fuel, tires, track rental, travel, and wear on real cars.

• 24/7 accessibility: Drivers can train any time without booking a physical track.

🛠️ 4. Technical Setup and Strategy Testing

• Simulate car setups: Drivers and engineers use simulators to test suspension, aerodynamics, and tire settings.

• Race strategy planning: Drivers can rehearse pit stops, tire wear management, fuel strategy, and overtaking tactics.

📊 5. Data Analysis and Feedback

• Telemetry tools: Most racing simulators include data tracking (e.g., lap times, throttle/brake inputs, steering angles) for performance review.

• Objective improvement tracking: Coaches can pinpoint areas for refinement using consistent, measurable feedback.

🌍 6. Remote Coaching and E-Sports Integration

• Coaching from anywhere: Instructors and teams can guide drivers virtually, using real-time data and video.

• Sim racing competitions: Competitive esports events now serve as both entertainment and a breeding ground for future real-world talent.

🧠 7. Mental Conditioning and Focus

• Mental endurance: Simulated races help train focus, reaction time, and decision-making under pressure.

• Routine building: Regular simulator use helps reinforce pre-race mental routines and reduce performance anxiety.
