Overview

Motorsport is expensive. Progression from karting to competitive racing typically requires years of private coaching, travel, and sponsorship — accessible only to those with financial backing.

Forseti Race set out to change that. A structured pathway from sim racing to real track driving, based on skill, not wealth.

Strange Tech partnered with Forseti from day one, building the full academy platform in 12 weeks — including a custom telemetry pipeline that nobody else had built: raw sim data parsed into ranked leaderboards, with Steam authentication and Stripe subscriptions.

How It Works

“Disciplined sim racing translates to cleaner, faster laps on track.”

Structured weekly training with professional coaching, eye-tracking analysis, and performance metrics. Sunday time attacks on controlled servers. Top performers earn a Brabham eSports scholarship and a real circuit test day.

Early cohorts proved the model — drivers progressed from home simulators to real track driving.
