Dutch company Cruden has supplied the technology for China’s first ever hi-tech racing simulator centre, which has just opened in Guangzhou.
The 5,000sq m (53,820sq ft) Huan Teng Technology centre features eight Cruden Hexatech Formula Style race car simulators linked together, with the attraction only available to members at the exclusive private club. Spread across two floors, the centre also offers poker, pool, indoor golf, massage facilities, a sports bar, restaurant and meeting rooms.
The new facility represents a multi-million dollar investment by partners Tian Dong and Ye Lin, who are aiming to attract between 600 and 800 visitors per week. The pair said they were targeting both male and female customers aged under 40, as well as business customers from the car dealership sector.
Dong, who spent six months researching simulators, said Cruden’s 6-DOF motion system was the most stable and the “closest product to real F1 cars.” The simulator company first develops equipment for the top levels of international motorsport, before making it available to the global attractions market and private individuals.
