Sim Drivers offers you, on a 170m2 space, 14 professional simulators mounted on jacks, for a 100% immersive experience of real driving, as close as possible to the sensations of real car drivers. These models are used by professional racing drivers themselves, and are connected to each other to ensure the organization of local competitions, between friends or colleagues.

To ensure immersion, the electronic cylinders from Qubic System promise unparalleled reliability and precision. And as for the races, the circuits integrated in the simulation software are laser scanned, which identifies every difference in level, every climb, every descent, every bump and other stones.

As for the simulators, 10 are for adult beginners, two are for intermediate level adult drivers, one is for professionals and one is for children of 1m40 minimum. And they are not all composed in the same way, the child simulator does not include jacks, for example. On the other hand, all of them are played on Assetto Corsa, one of the most recognized softs in the world of circuit racing.

To try the Sim Drivers simulator, how does it work? First of all, get close to the terminals and select the part of your choice, your car and your difficulty level. Then, an explanatory video (or a team briefing, if you come in group) is presented to you, showing you the instructions to follow for the adjustment of the seats, the choice of the manual or automatic mode, or the presentation of the pedals. Then comes the choice of the circuit and the level. Then, it's up to you to play!

A simulator that the editors were able to test! And we will not lie, we were pleasantly surprised by the quality, much higher than what is done in other brands, of the experience. So we let ourselves be tempted by the Formula 1 simulator, in real condition. Sitting on our seat, the position is identical to a real Formula 1.

As far as the experience is concerned, everything is very well explained from the beginning (even if there are many things to remember), and the sensations are well and truly there, brought perfectly. A simulator that is sensitive to the slightest steering wheel movement or to the terrain, promising an ultra-faithful rendering of gravel or uneven ground, for example. Regarding the screens, Assetto Corsa does the job, allowing you to try out any type of car on any type of terrain.

A truly great experience for all fans of motorsports or even racing games, and accessible to all. So, shall we book?
