Partaking in actual racing like karting or touring cars is no longer a requirement to be a real race car driver these days. Sim Racing has become one of the most cost-effective ways to quickly develop racing skills and be competitive against drivers who have honed their skills on actual cars.
There are many occupations to pursue when one grows up. Yet few are as exciting or challenging as becoming a race car driver. We’re not going to sugar coat it. It’s going to be a long and difficult journey, but for those willing to take it on, it’s actually become dramatically more accessible to pursue.
These days, even sim drivers from the Philippines have a shot at international competition with events like theoffering finalists the chance to represent the country in regional events, and also race real life cars at the local one-make series, the Philippine Vios Cup. It may sound daunting, but it’s far more economical than actual racing where a racing kart alone can set you back some P250,000, and another P100,000 for safety certified equipment like a racing suit, gloves, shoes, HANS device, and helmet. This does not even include expenses like fuel, tires, parts and maintenance, mechanic, and track fees.First, you’ll need to select your gaming platform. This is basically the hardware with which you’ll run the racing simulator game.
Generally, we recommend the Playstation as there are more online and real life leagues and competitions based on Gran Turismo 7, Formula 1, and WRC Rally. The PC tower comes in second with several online competitions and leagues based on games like Assetto Corsa and iRacing.Some may see the wheel as an optional accessory. However, for those that seriously want to pursue racing, it’s practically a requirement. You don’t see real race car drivers using gaming controllers.
Shift Zone offers a wide variety of driving rigs, whether for beginner sim racers or more experienced home racers. Entry level VX-S, V1 and V2 stands are designed to be compatible with popular racing wheels such as Logitech and Thrustmaster. These stands feature strong adjustable bases suitable for storage when not in use, making them a practical option for home setups.
