Green Sim Racing
This blog post discusses the costs associated with running a track day or race car and offers a cost-effective alternative of investing in a high-quality motorsport simulator. The RSR-21 Simulator Cockpit by Rock Solid Rigs is a top-tier wooden simulator cockpit that offers unparalleled stiffness and adjustment ranges for maximum performance. It prioritizes sustainability in its design and manufacturing processes by using locally sourced materials and manufacturing in the UK. The environmental costs involved in aluminum mining, production, and shipping are compared to the environmental impact of using UK-sourced wood. Additionally, the post highlights the benefits of simulators, including the ability to practice racing and improve skills on a cold, wet, winter night and the opportunity to race against thousands of other drivers worldwide.
Mixed Reality Simulation for the most Realistic Driver Training
Virtual reality paired with the motion platform could be an extremely valuable experience in terms of training and preparing services for what might happen on the road. Because of that, Highways England is always in need of training solutions that best prepare officers for what they might encounter in daily work.
During the Emergency Services Show in Birmingham, both traffic officers and visitors had the opportunity to test a VR driver’s training vehicle simulator provided by MXT Reality with Varjo XR-3 Headset. In this simulator as a motion base, MXT used QS-CH1 motion cockpit on to which have bolted the seat of Land Rover Discovery since this as one of the vehicles that Traffic Officers use.

Understanding the Three Types of Wheelbases in Motorsport Simulators
When it comes to motorsport simulators, one of the most important components is the wheelbase. This is the part that connects the steering wheel to the computer and allows the driver to experience the sensation of driving. There are three types of wheelbases available on the market: gear-driven, belt-driven, and direct drive. Let's take a closer look at each type and explore the pros and cons of each.
iRacing new tyre modelling
iRacing, the motorsport simulator, has recently added deformable mesh simulation of the tyre to its platform, putting it on par with rFactor 2, which was initially the only motorsport simulator to offer this feature.
