Race simulator
hire
A race simulator at your trade show, staff party or open day, with a live leaderboard, a final and a prize wheel. We turn it into a competition.
Hire a race simulator, with a competition around it
Hiring a race simulator is the easy part. You set it up, someone gets in and drives a few laps. After an hour you notice that the people who've already driven don't come back, and the rest stand watching without getting in. What's missing is a reason to have another go.
The simulators are delivered, set up and kept running technically. We add a competition: every lap time on a leaderboard, a final at the end and a prize wheel for those who weren't the fastest. You have one point of contact for the whole thing.
- Racing simulator delivered and set up

- Final and prize-giving at the end
- A host at the simulator all day
From driving laps to a competition
The leaderboard
Every lap time appears with a name on a big screen. Whoever is just in second place comes back an hour later to try again. That creates a queue that keeps topping itself up.
The final
At the end of the day or evening, the fastest drivers race once more, one at a time, for the final standings. With an audience and someone announcing, it becomes a moment the whole room watches.
The prize wheel
Not everyone sets the fastest time. With a spin of the wheel after each lap, even the slowest driver has a chance of winning something. At a trade show that keeps the less competitive visitors involved.
Registration
Anyone who wants to be on the leaderboard leaves a name, and at a trade show, with permission, contact details too. Afterwards you know who drove and who got talking.
At the trade show, the party or the open day
At a trade show, a race simulator is a reason to slow down. The sound and the screen draw people to the stand, and the leaderboard keeps them there. With registration, the stand team knows who drove and has an easy way to start a conversation. For how that fits into a bigger plan, see trade show activation.
At a staff party it's about the rivalry between colleagues. Departments against each other, the director who has to beat an intern's time in the final. There the presentation can be a bit bolder, with a countdown and a podium for the top three.
At an open day it's mainly young people and parents with children who drive. There we keep the laps shorter so the queue doesn't get too long, and set the simulator to an easier mode for the youngest drivers if possible.
Space, power and flow
A simulator needs power, a flat floor and enough room to get in and out. At a trade show we coordinate that with the stand builder, at a party with the venue. The screen with the leaderboard needs to be visible from where people wait.
We also decide how long a turn lasts. A lap of a minute or two lets lots of people drive, while a longer race is more exciting but makes the queue longer. At a busy trade show we go for short, at a party with a fixed group it can be longer.
We work throughout the Netherlands, from Enschede. You'll get the price after a short enquiry, within one working day.
Frequently asked questions
How much space does a race simulator need?
That varies by model. A simulator with seat, wheel and screen usually fits on an exhibition stand or in a corner of the room. On top of that, allow room for people watching and for the screen with the leaderboard. You'll get the exact dimensions in advance.
Does someone come along to run the simulator?
Yes. There's someone there who explains to new drivers how it works, adjusts the seat and starts the next lap. Without a host the queue grinds to a halt at the first person who doesn't know which pedal is the brake.
Can several people race at the same time?
As standard everyone races against the clock and the leaderboard decides the winner. Whether more simulators can stand side by side depends on what is available on that date. Ask in your enquiry and we'll tell you what's possible.
What does it cost to hire a race simulator?
That depends on the setup, the number of days and whether a competition with leaderboard and final is included. You'll get the price after a short enquiry, within one working day.
Where should the simulator go?
Tell us the date, the place and the type of event, and we'll send a proposal with a price within one working day.
