WHAT PEOPLE SAY
5.0 stars on Google from first-timers, families, coached drivers, and sim racers who already own a rig. Real words, real visits.
"My first time ever visiting a sim racing lounge and I'm super impressed. The staff made me feel welcome and set me up as a beginner. My 2 hr session flew by! Wheel and pedals were so realistic it felt like I was actually on a track."
"5 star, great experience for the whole family! My son is 10 and absolutely loved it. The guys running this were super patient and educating, fun shop too! We will definitely be back for more fun!"
"Gearing up for my Cleetus McFarland Driving Experience, I wanted to shave my lap times. Malikai set me up with a Crown Vic tuned to match the cars at the Freedom Factory. The venue, the service, and the results were all top-notch."
"Stellar experience learning different types of cars and tracks! I booked sessions to learn drifting, heel-toe, and rally. So much progress is made in even a single session, super thankful to Malikai for his awesome coaching!"
"I have my own sim racing setup at home but the ones here were out of this world. Owner was amazing and very helpful, always sought to give out tips even when not asked. If you're looking for coaching, this is the spot."
"I came to just watch the F1 race but fell in love with the environment. The simulators are unlike anything I've ever had the pleasure of racing before. If you're a fan of racing, come check this place out!"
BROWSE OUR SIMULATORS
From the flagship motion-platform rig to fast-and-friendly single-screen setups, plus a dedicated student driving simulator for new drivers and driver's ed programs.
This is private simulator time, not a hosted event. We'll get everyone set up and running, but there's no race director, tournament format, or catering. Want us to run the whole thing? See hosted race events →
Bigger group, or a date that will not book online? Ask for a quote →
Want a staffed event instead, with a race director, catering and setup handled for you? Those are quoted separately from $2,000 at inquiry.academysim.com. The buyout above is the self-run option.
Like the hardware? Academy builds custom simulators, from a single screen to full motion. See sim builds →
Running A Track Weekend?
Free corner-by-corner guides to the circuits our drivers run, plus how to prepare so your paid track time gets spent driving, not learning where the track goes.
