Behind the creation of this racing setup is the Memento Exclusives team, founded by former Honda F1 lead mechanic Barry Gough. He built the 2022 and 2023 Alfa Romeo F1 show cars. The authors say that this racing simulator is created using the same processes as real Formula 1 cars.

The construction process of the play station uses CAD data directly from Red Bull. There are two versions. A cheaper one, called the Show Car, costs $90,447. The $120,596 version, called the Champion’s Edition, adds a front end not found on the Show Car.

The rig also features working adjustable gaming pedals, a Rexing Formula Wheel Mayaris wheel with Red Bull logo and paddle shifters, and an extra-wide curved AOC gaming monitor. Sound is provided by the Z906 Ultimate THX surround sound system. However, there is no information about the computer stuffing.

BYD cuts prices on 100 models to beat Toyota and

BYD is going to beat Toyota and Volkswagen by offering modern cars at very low prices. According to Bloomberg, the Chinese automaker has reduced prices on more than 100 of its electric and hybrid models.

For example, BYD’s new generation-changing Seagull hatchback now costs less than $10,000, while the manufacturer’s best-selling electric sedan, the Qin Plus, costs less than $11,000.

BYD announced the beginning of an era called “electricity is cheaper than oil”, when hybrid and pure electric models become as affordable as traditional models with internal combustion engines, or even cheaper.

Previously, BYD Auto officially announced the production of its 7 millionth new energy vehicle, which turned out to be the Denza N7.
