If you’ve ever dreamed of racing at over 250 km/h or navigating a rally course without leaving Querétaro, this is your chance. For just $21 per person, you can spend 30 minutes at Performance Simulators, a facility that offers a unique blend of professional-level driving simulation and entertainment. Located in Querétaro, this experience features the only 6-axis dynamic simulators in Mexico, used by actual race drivers, which makes it a standout choice for racing enthusiasts and curious travelers alike.
We loved the realistic sensations of acceleration, braking, and track bumps, which make you feel like you’re actually in a race car. The guidance from knowledgeable staff adds confidence, especially for newcomers or those eager to improve their skills. Two aspects particularly stand out: the state-of-the-art simulators that produce genuine racing sensations, and the ability to challenge friends or AI in multiplayer mode, turning a solo activity into a competitive thrill.
A possible consideration is that the experience is limited to 30 minutes, which may seem brief for some. However, those minutes are packed with adrenaline and fun, making the price highly competitive given the level of realism. This tour suits tech-savvy travelers, motorsports fans, or anyone curious about racing, especially since the simulators are designed to reproduce real race conditions safely and without the need for a track or actual vehicle.

Why This Simulator Experience Stands Out
Querétaro’s Performance Simulators offers a rare chance to step into the shoes of a professional driver without the risks or costs of actual racing. Imagine sitting in a sleek Formula 1 car, feeling the engine’s roar as you navigate a winding track, all through a cutting-edge simulator that faithfully reproduces the thrill and physical sensations of real racing.
The advantage of using the latest 6-axis technology cannot be overstated. These simulators are equipped with motion systems that tilt, vibrate, and react to every turn and bump, giving a highly authentic experience. As one reviewer, Carlos Montufar Cha, put it, “The simulators are awesome, with a really fun experience and time flies by,” highlighting how engaging and immersive the activity is.
Another feature we love is the opportunity to challenge friends or AI rivals—which injects a competitive element that’s perfect for groups or families. Whether you’re a seasoned racing veteran or just want to try something new, the full briefing ensures everyone gets acquainted with the controls, making it accessible for first-timers.

Authenticity and Safety
One of the key advantages of this experience is safety. Unlike real racing, there’s no risk of crashes or injuries. The simulators are built to mimic real driving sensations but with total safety and comfort. This is perfect for those who might feel nervous about actual racing but still crave the thrill.
