RACING SIMULATOR RENTALS
ACROSS FLORIDA

Academy Sim Racing is based in Tampa and delivers fully staffed, turnkey simulator events throughout the state. We bring the rigs to your venue, run the activation, and take it all away again.

How It Works

ONE BASE, THE WHOLE STATE

We operate from one place. Everything we bring to an event in Orlando, Daytona Beach or Sarasota leaves from our Tampa facility, arrives with our staff, and goes back the same way.

That is worth being clear about, because service-area pages often imply a branch network that does not exist. Academy has one location. Everywhere else on this page is somewhere we deliver to, not somewhere we have an office.

Practically it means two things. Travel and staffing are quoted per event rather than baked into a list price, and lead time matters more the further you are from Tampa, particularly for multi-day installs.

Florida Markets

WHERE WE DELIVER MOST

Each of these has a different event economy, so the guidance is different.

Elsewhere

THE REST OF FLORIDA

We take bookings across the state, including St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Wesley Chapel, Bradenton, Lakeland, Ocala, Jacksonville, Fort Myers, Naples and the South Florida markets. Those do not have their own pages yet, which is deliberate. We would rather write a genuinely useful page for a market once we have enough to say about it than publish a page that is this one with the city name swapped out.

If your event is somewhere not listed, ask. The answer is usually yes.

Academy Sim Racing operates from 1421 Massaro Blvd, Tampa, FL 33619. We do not have offices, showrooms or branches in any other city. Every other market listed here is served by mobile delivery from Tampa.

Questions

WHAT PLANNERS ASK

Do you have locations outside Tampa?
No. We have one facility, in Tampa. Everywhere else in Florida is served by mobile delivery from there, with our own staff travelling to the event.
How far will you travel?
Throughout Florida. Travel and staffing are quoted per event based on distance and duration.
Is staff included?
Yes, always. Delivery, setup, calibration, staffing and teardown are typically included, and your quote sets out exactly what is covered and for how many hours.
How much does a simulator rental cost?
It depends on the number of rigs, the length of the event, the venue and the distance, so we quote rather than list. Send us the details and you will get a real number.
How much space does a simulator need?
The frame is 26 inches wide and 57 inches long, and the widest point is the 49 inch ultrawide display. In practice, allow around 10 feet by 10 feet per simulator once you include the driver getting in and out and somebody waiting. Send us your floor plan or booth dimensions and we will confirm exactly what fits.
Can we use several simulators at one event?
Yes. Multi-rig setups are common, and they are what you need if you want everyone through in a defined window.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better, especially for branded wraps, multi-day installs, race weekends and dates in the lead-up to the holidays.
