Driver Testimonials:

"Cranfield's sim really helped my progress and learning of the tracks I raced at in W Series. The team worked hard to perfect the car in order to make it as realistic as possible. It was a great tool that was an ingredient to my success in the series."

Alice Powell / W-Series, GP3

"Throughout my driving career I have used many simulators to assist with my own development up to and including F1 level. The simulator at Cranfield is a great centre for all levels of driving especially with the hardware they have developed for F1 teams."

Craig Dolby / GT3, LMP2, Superleague Formula

"Practising rallying is never easy with the lack of time available in the car so Cranfield's simulator offers the perfect opportunity to develop and maintain your focus and physical ability. As well as competing myself, I have also been coaching for a few years and the simulator has become a vital tool to help me achieve my goals both as a driver and a coach."

Callum Black / Former British Rally Champion

"One of the most powerful aspects of the simulator is the core skills you develop on it ... as close an experience as you can get to the real thing in a controlled environment."

Derek Palmer / BTCC, TCR UK, FIA GT

"This simulator is probably the best I have ever driven, mainly because of the seat."

Tom Kimber-Smith / Multiple Le Mans 24h winner

"I've tried a few motion simulators over the years and this was right up there. It offered an extra dynamic to the driving which means it's a fantastic tool if you are wanting to replicate the forces generated in a real car. I'd love to use this simulator in preparation for my real life racing endeavours going forward!"

James Baldwin / Esports "World's Fastest Gamer" & McLaren GT3 Driver

"Amazing technology, so realistic... I even shut my eyes when I hit the wall!"

Perry McCarthy / Former F1 driver & original "Stig" from Top Gear

Media Reviews:

"...the ultimate home racing simulator."

BBC Top Gear / Netherlands

"The daddy of all Formula 1 Simulator rigs. One that’s levels above anything we’ve ever seen and truly in a league of its own."

Boss Hunting / Australia

"To say it works would be an understatement. I drove it, this unreal thing, as hard as I dared for half a dozen laps, and my mind was totally convinced. I pushed harder. I sweated. I nearly crashed. Eventually the tyres went off and I felt that too. It totally sucked me in."

Autocar / UK

"...as close as you can get to hitting the track in the real thing."

Uncrate / USA

"Wow. Such an incredible experience, and I've been in the McLaren F1 simulator ... yes it's better, it's a better experience, because you don't feel like you're in a simulator."

Marc Priestley / "F1 Elvis"
