'Brabham Automotive,' the Australian automaker famous for its track-racing supercars, has announced the creation of three Brabham F1 racing simulation rigs. These rigs are each tied to one specific, iconic car from Brabham Automotive's F1 racing history. The three selected vehicles are the '1966 BT19,' the '1978 BT46B,' and the '1983 BT52.' The simulation rigs themselves are designed to physically replicate the driver's seat section of the cabin complete with a screen that mimics the windshield of the car.
The software running on these simulators allows the user to simulate the experience of racing with these iconic, historical supercars. These three cars were not selected at random for the simulation rigs, though. Instead, each of these vehicles are tied to a landmark part of Brabham Automotive's history, such as a victory at a championship series or a debut racecar for an iconic professional racer.
