Racing Fan Fest is a free event built around the fandom of Formula 1 and the global cultural phenomena of Race Weeks in the United States. Launched in Miami, in 2022, the off-track event is owned and produced by SWARM, a 360-lifestyle production company. The festival hosts exclusive activations from the best in the sport. From immersive and interactive installations to the apex of innovation and ingenuity, Racing Fan Fest is the ultimate show-and-tell for all types of fans.
To create the right party vibe for this event held in the heart of Wynwood, Ricmotech provided club music to fill the space, lighting effects controlled by AI in sync with the music, and racing decorations to create some great photo ops. A driver registration kiosk was used to collect participant information and a racing leaderboard was automatically populated based on driver performance. On-sim cameras caught all the action and mirrored it on dual spectator screens.
As creative director of PUMA’s F1 partnership, of course A$AP Rocky was present for F1’s Miami to sell his latest motorsport collection, including his first-ever PUMA shoe. As with most Rocky appearances, good ‘fits are a given (maybe a Rihanna sighting too). Rocky’s Miami minute was no exception.
At his PUMA pop-up, Rocky proved his multitasking skills to be top-tier. The musician managed to promote his new gear, have an arcade date night with Rih, and get a cool race ‘fit off all at once. -Morgan Smith
Nearly sixty years ago, Ford unveiled the original Mustang at the World’s Fair in New York. In April 2024, the next chapter of Mustang began with an epic Mustang fan event at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
Owners and fans in attendance got a first look at a limited edition 60th Anniversary Appearance Package and tried a new, exclusive Mustang ownership experience rolling out over the next year.
They met Ford Performance racing drivers, up close and personal with monster Mustangs, including the Mustang Mach-E 1400, and saw the entire array of racing Mustangs in one place. Ride-alongs in Mustangs on a drift track and around Charlotte’s famed Roval gave a first-hand taste of not just Mustang performance, but some of the skills they can learn through Mustang’s new ownership experiences.
Racing simulators provided by Ricmotech were on-hand to give drivers a taste of driving the Dark Horse Mustang is like on the Charlotte Roval.

Ricmotech provided simulators and simulator support at all nationwide events in the 2023 season, and is scheduled to do the same in 2024.
The National Retail Federation host an annual show every year. This year Workday, a leading provider of enterprise cloud applications, was looking to engage booth visitors with their theme; “Accelerate Your Business” Ricmotech was present with one of their motion simulators dressed in a whimsical race car facade for attendees to enjoy.
This was the third annual SubieFest Florida held at Daytona International Speedway. Subaru rolled out their hospitality trailer equipped with three Ricmotech simulators. Ricmotech ambassadors Frank and Jose were on-site to tune the simulators and make sure everything was performing in tip top shape. Pro drivers Scott Speed and Bucky Lasek were there to show participants how the pros do it. A good time was had by all.
