A First look At The Simworx Supercar Billet Sequential Shifter

High-End Racing Simulator chassis have come a long way the last few years. Besides the more demanding home users, also amateurs and professional racing drivers embraced the modern racing simulator to sharpen their real-world skills. This has opened up a bigger market for the more expensive, high-end segment of the market.

One of the brands aiming at this market is the Australian SimworX company who are based in Bayswater North, Victoria, Australia. SimworX is building simulator cockpits since 2002. Their hugely successful racing simulator series is used as a home training setup by many real-world racing teams and international racing drivers. Besides designing and building full-blown Sim Racing chassis, Simworx also develops and retails high-end sim racing peripherals.

One of their latest creations is the Simworx Supercar Billet Sequential Shifter as used in the Ford Falcon FG-X of the Shell V-Power DJR Penske Team. This Alloy Supercar Shifter is CNC machined from a solid Billet of aluminum and is polished.  The shifter features a separate gearbox connected via a push rod, just as in the real world. The gearbox can also be remotely mounted using a longer push rod. The throw and tension are adjustable. A reverse lever will also be available. The Shifter is PC compatible and fully Plug and play when using iRacing, AMS, Assetto Corsa, rFactor2, rFactor1 and Project Cars.

The Simworx Supercar Billet Sequential is on order for $1,100.00 + GST for Australian customers. (converted that is €695 + shipping + taxes when available outside Australia)
