22i Winner @ AWE Expo Racing Simulator

May 17, 2022

AWE ran a racing simulator fastest lap competition at the recent AWE Expo, where attendees had the chance to test their driving in their BPS Blade; a custom-built, professional-grade race simulator. Attendees competed against each other for the opportunity to win a Magnum of Moet & Chandon, and we are delighted to announce that the winner was our own Project Manager, Graham Gallagher.

The simulator was a highly popular attraction throughout the Expo, but out of all attendees driving an Aston Martin Vantage GT4 around the Brands Hatch Indy Circuit, the best time was achieved by Graham at a very quick 49:351 seconds.

After being notified that he won, AWE asked Graham a few questions:

What are your thoughts on the BPS Blade Bespoke Race Simulator itself? Did you like it?
“I could have spent all day on that simulator trying to beat my time. It’s really immersive being sat in that seat and found myself zoning out trying to concentrate. The feedback on the steering is amazing, you get a great sense of involvement with the game. In the right environment that allowed for improved audio and less distractions a lot of time could be lost!”

Do you game in your spare time? And if so, which ones?
“I do game when I can in my spare time, I’m currently playing Forza Horizon 5, Forza Motorsport 7, Halo and Call of Duty Modern Warfare.”

What did you think of the AWE Expo?
“I really enjoyed the expo, was good to put some faces to names and have a chat. Great layout. The 2 cinemas were excellent. Good effort with getting all organised. I also got some really useful information from the various seminars that were on.”

Tell us more about Twenty Two Integration and what you do there?
“Here at 22 Integration, we specialise in high-end residential AV installs. We do everything from multi-room audio and video, dedicated Hi-Fi systems, home cinemas and window treatments.”

Congratulations Graham!!
