Founded in 2002 by Howard Yang, Abtivan was born out of a passion for racing and a need for reliable performance parts. Initially focused on selling automotive components, the business quickly evolved when Howard partnered with professional racer Kevin Chen. Kevin's impressive career included racing in GP2 and WTCC, and consecutive victories in SCCA Touring 2 Championships. He even became the spokesperson for Microsoft Xbox 360 Forza in Taiwan.

As their racing careers progressed, Kevin and Howard recognized the value of simulation for honing racing skills. However, they found existing sim cockpits to be unstable, unrealistic, or prohibitively expensive. Determined to create a better solution, they combined their expertise and connections with professional drivers, engineers, and fabricators to develop their own simulator.

After countless hours of research and development, meticulously examining performance vehicles, and perfecting the seating positions, the GTR Simulator was born. This innovative racing simulator offered an unparalleled experience at an affordable price, allowing gamers and racing enthusiasts to enjoy the thrill of racing without the need for team sponsorship, licenses, or helmets.

Since 2010, Abtivan has been providing professional-grade GTR simulators to customers in North America, Europe, and Australia. Our commitment to innovation continues as we develop cutting-edge sim racing technology under the "Motion Edge" brand. Future advancements will include:

• Dynamic Active Seat Belt Retractor Tensioner: Enhances realism by simulating seatbelt tension during high-speed maneuvers.
• Dynamic Active G-Force Seat Add-on Kit: Replicates the physical forces experienced during acceleration, braking, and cornering.
• 6-DOF Motion Platform: Provides six degrees of freedom, offering the most immersive simulation experience.
• Traction Loss 3-DOF Platform: Simulates the loss of traction, adding another layer of realism.
• 4-DOF Motion Kit: Combines pitch, roll, yaw, and heave for a comprehensive motion experience.

With these innovations, GTR Simulator aims to redefine the immersive sim racing experience, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and bringing even more excitement to racing enthusiasts worldwide.
