I’ve never been very good on simulators so never went out of my way to use them. During lockdown I needed a tool to keep up my driving before the season started as all testing was cancelled, after investing in the FPZERO Sim I have seen a huge difference in my driving on track, I never have the laps at the start of the day re-training my brain for the layout of the track or controls of the car, its all there thanks to the prep I put in at home on my sim! To have to option to jump on it for a few hours in the week really helps my preparation and focus going into a race weekend!
