Racing Simulators for Event Companies

Build a Fleet. Generate Revenue. Run Competitive Events.

SimsForHire started as an event company. We know what it takes to deploy simulators at hundreds of events per year because we do it ourselves. Now we sell the same event-grade hardware to other event companies ready to add racing simulators to their service catalog. Built for rapid deployment, client branding, and revenue generation.

Why Own Instead of Rent

Keep 100% of Revenue

Stop paying rental fees that eat into your margins. After 5-10 events, the simulator has paid for itself. Every event after that is pure profit minus transport and operator costs.

Always Available

No more checking availability or losing bookings because the rental company is booked. Your fleet is always ready. Accept every event inquiry without hesitation.

Your Brand, Your Experience

Brand the simulators with your company identity. Offer branded experiences to your clients. White-label option means zero SimsForHire visibility — it is your product, your reputation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I build a rental fleet — start with one rig or several?
Most operators start with 1-3 rigs to validate demand in their market, then expand to 5+ as bookings stabilize. Our Starter Fleet (1 rig) is the lowest-risk entry; Growth Fleet (3 rigs networked with head-to-head racing) gets a 20% volume discount and unlocks tournament events. Enterprise Fleet (5+) is the operating point where full-time crew makes sense. See the Fleet Building section above.
How much can I charge per simulator at an event?
Event companies typically charge $1,500-$3,000 per simulator per day for corporate events and brand activations. Multi-day events, multi-rig packages, and premium configurations command higher rates. With 2-3 events per week and a fleet of 3 simulators, annual revenue of $200,000-$400,000 is achievable.
How do you transport simulators between events?
Our Professional Event Rig sets up in 30 minutes by one person and breaks down into flight cases that fit a standard cargo van or SUV. The Portable Event Rig breaks down in 15 minutes. Motion-equipped rigs require a small box truck (we recommend a 16ft truck for 2-3 motion rigs). We design every event rig for rapid deployment because we deploy them ourselves every week.
How durable is the hardware for heavy event use?
Every component is commercial-grade and rated for 8+ hours of continuous use, 200+ sessions per day, and indoor/outdoor deployment (with shade). Wheels (Simucube 2, Simagic GT Neo) and pedals (Heusinkveld) are the same gear pro sim racers use 8 hours a day. Replacement wear parts (pedal pads, wheel grips) ship next-day. The Sigma Integrale motion platform is designed for rental fleet use.
Can I put my event company brand on the rigs?
Yes. Pod wraps in your colors, branded shrouds, leaderboard skins, and seat embroidery are all available. Our White-Label Simulator program (minimum 3-unit order) puts your brand on everything — manuals, warranty docs, screen overlays — with zero SimsForHire visibility. Your clients see your product, your reputation.
What does the ROI math look like?
Example: a 3-rig Growth Fleet at $55,000 (after 20% volume discount). At an average of $2,000 per rig per event day, you break even at roughly 9-10 event days. With 2 events per week (4 event days per week), payback is ~3 months. After that, gross margin is 80%+ minus transport and operator costs. See /rent-vs-buy-racing-simulator for the full breakdown.
Do I need technical staff to operate them?
We provide full training on setup, operation, and troubleshooting. One person can set up and operate 1-3 simulators at an event. The SimsForHire leaderboard system runs automatically once configured. For your first few events, we can provide an on-site technician at an additional cost.
What support do you provide after the sale?
Every purchase includes a 12-month parts-and-labor warranty, remote troubleshooting, software updates, and access to our operator playbook. Optional service plans cover priority phone support, advance-replacement wear parts, and on-site training refreshers. Enterprise Fleet buyers get a dedicated account manager.
