In mid April of this year I participated in a PCA NER (Porsche Club Of America, New England Region) webinar on getting into sim racing in general and getting involved with PCA Sim Racing.

Here's the webinar description and the recorded webinar.

Our first webinar for PCA NER. We explore what it takes to get up and...

I asked fellow sim racer Ben Konick to stop by on Saturday morning, October 19th to talk about his experience in our VR Motion Labs 3DOF simulator.

The informal discussion touches on his experience with Sim Racing and my experience the night before with my first 1 hour race ever with the PCA sim racing series in...

My first race was at Lime Rock Park in the Global MX-5 Cup car....

Want to become a faster race car driver?  Sim racing is the answer.

The debate should be over – sim racing works.  Professional drivers use it to get faster.  Professional teams use it to find new drivers. Even Pure sim racers have gone on to become successful racers. They even made a TV show about it!

Last weekend we visited the Newport Car Museum with the Ferrari Club of America, New England Region. We started off with a coffee social where we saw some familiar faces from the FCA event we hosted a few weeks ago, and met a bunch of new members from all over New England. It's in groups like this that you can r...

After some great feedback from numerous members of the Boston BMW CCA and the PCA Northeast Region, we've added a 5 point racing harness to our 3DOF VR Racing Motion Simulator for enhanced sensory feedback when braking and cornering. 

The 5 point harness firmly secures the driver in the simulator seat so tha...

Documenting and tracking the impact of minor adjustments to a cars setup is critical to achieving maximum performance.

I'm very pleased to present Prototype #2, a high performance 3DOF VR Racing motion simulator that has been in the works for the past 10 months.

This simulator will make its public debut on January 17th and January 18th at ARinAction at the MIT Media Lab.

The 3DOF motion includes pitch, roll and yaw, which sim...
