Your group.
Twelve rigs.
Pit-crew precision.

Birthdays, corporate offsites, team-building, bachelor and bachelorette parties — we run private events on twelve full-motion sims with a lounge and billiards next door. Book the floor, brief your group, race the format you want, hand out the trophy.

§ 01 / Why a sim lounge for groups

Three reasons it works.

Most group venues optimize for either drinking or one lane at a time. Twelve rigs lets a whole party race at once, and the lounge is built for the rest of the night.

01
12 sims

Everyone races at once.

No queue, no rotation chart. A party of twelve all hit the green light on the same lap — so heats actually mean something and the leaderboard fills quickly.

02
+1 lounge

A real room for the rest of the night.

Billiards, seating, and big screens for spectators. Half the group races, half watches the timing screens — then you swap. The lounge isn't a hallway.

03
0 logistics

Staff handle the run-of-show.

Briefing, calibration, format, timing, podium. You show up with a group and an idea ("birthday for ten, kid drives a Ferrari"); we handle the rest with pit-crew precision.

§ 02 / Who's coming

Event types we run.

Every group is different — but most fall into one of these five. Pick the one closest to yours; we'll tailor it on the call.

Bachelor / bachelorette.

An hour-and-a-half on the rigs, then time in the lounge with billiards. Bring your own catering. Better than a brewery crawl, less commitment than karting.

§ 07 / Quick FAQ

Questions we answer most.

If yours isn't here, ask in the inquiry form — it's faster than the FAQ ever will be.

Has anyone in my group never raced before?

Most of every group has never raced. The default car is beginner-positive and the briefing covers braking, the racing line, and what every pedal does. We tune driving aids per rig if anyone wants more help.

Can a five-year-old drive?

Yes — we run a junior rig profile with an adjusted seat, lower wheel torque, and assisted braking. Five is on the young side but workable; a parent can sit alongside the rig.

Can we bring our own food and cake?

Yes — BYO catering and non-alcoholic drinks are welcome in the lounge. The alcohol policy for private events is being finalized; ask on the inquiry call.

Can you simulate our actual race team's car and tracks?

If your class is in the catalog, yes — that's a real use case for us, and we've done it for an off-season offsite. Send us the car class and the tracks you want loaded and we'll set it up before you arrive.

Is the venue closed to the public during my event?

Your group races on dedicated rigs while other guests use the rest of the floor. For larger groups we can arrange a full buyout that closes the venue during your block — ask when you inquire.

How far ahead do we need to book?

One to two weeks is ideal so we can lock the briefing, format, and any custom setup. Race-team simulation setups need extra time to preload the cars and tracks. We confirm exact lead time when you inquire.
