Trak Racer Australia Review 2026: Are Its Sim Racing Rigs Worth the Price?

Short verdict: Trak Racer AU sells sim racing rigs, seats, wheelbases and monitors designed in Australia, with prices from under AUD 50 for small parts to over AUD 5,000 for a direct drive wheelbase. The range is wide and the gear looks built for long-term use, but we could not confirm exact delivery times, return windows or warranty length from the site today. We rate it 3.6 out of 5.

How we wrote this review: we used the store's own product listing, home page and FAQ page, checked on 29 September 2026. We have not ordered from Trak Racer AU ourselves, so we cannot describe assembly time, delivery speed or after-sales support from personal experience. Where the store's shipping and refund policy pages did not show readable text, we say so.

What is Trak Racer AU?

Trak Racer AU is the Australian store of Trak Racer, a brand that designs and engineers racing and flight simulator equipment. According to the store's FAQ page, products are designed and engineered in Australia and made with manufacturing partners overseas. The range covers full simulator cockpits, racing seats, wheelbases, pedals, shifters, monitors and mounting accessories. The store also runs a physical showroom where customers can see and try rigs in person, and it offers customer support by phone or message Monday to Friday, 8am to 8:30pm.

Products and prices

The store lists 250 products. The table below shows a sample across categories, in Australian dollars, checked on 29 September 2026. Some items show a range because they come in several trims, and the "list price" is the store's own compare-at price shown next to a lower current price.

Product	Price (AUD)	List price (AUD)	What you get
TR5 Racing Simulator Cockpit	899	899	Entry-level steel cockpit frame
TRF Racing Simulator	1,299	1,299	Full cockpit rig, no wheelbase or pedals included
TR200 Pro (TANK) Racing Simulator	1,350	1,350	Heavier-duty rig aimed at direct drive setups
RE2 Dual-Lock Reclining Sim Racing Seat	279-319	319	Reclining seat, several colour and stitching options
RS GT Rally-Pro Racing Bucket Seat	349-399	399	Fibreglass bucket seat
32" QHD 180Hz IPS Gaming Monitor	299-852.15	897	Sim racing display, price depends on size/config chosen
TR ONE V3 2-Way Wheel Side-Mount Kit	169	169	Mount for Simagic Evo wheelbases
Simucube 3 Ultimate Direct Drive Wheelbase System	5,049	5,049	High-end direct drive wheelbase

As the table shows, a full setup can run from around AUD 900 for a basic cockpit frame up to several thousand dollars once you add a wheelbase, seat and monitor. The store's FAQ says Trak Racer prices are higher than some competitors because the rigs include extra components as standard.

Build quality and assembly

The store describes its rigs as built from steel tubular profile or aluminium extrusion, which it says suits both first-time racers and more serious users. Products ship partly assembled to reduce shipping costs. The FAQ says assembly can take from around 30 minutes up to several hours depending on the rig, with full details said to be on each product page. The store also sells spare parts and hardware, such as extrusion profiles, end caps and screw sets, which suggests the rigs are designed to be adjusted or repaired over time rather than replaced.

Compatibility and fit

According to the FAQ, Trak Racer products work with PS5, PS4, PS3, PS2, Xbox and PC systems, and the rigs include adjustable components meant to fit users of different sizes. The store notes that most rigs are not easy to store away once built, though it points to a compact model (the FS3) as an exception for people short on space.

Shipping

The store's shipping policy page did not display readable delivery or fee information when we checked it today, so we cannot confirm exact shipping costs or delivery times for Australian orders. Given the size and weight of full simulator rigs, buyers should expect freight delivery rather than standard parcel post for the larger items, and should check delivery details on the specific product page or with customer support before ordering.

Returns and refunds

The refund policy page also did not show readable text when we checked it today, so we cannot confirm the return window, restocking fees, or who pays return shipping. The FAQ does confirm one limit: Trak Racer will not cover costs from a third-party installer who is not approved or recommended by the brand, if a customer is unhappy with a rig someone else assembled for them. Anyone planning to order should ask customer support directly about the return process and any costs before buying, since sim rigs are large and returning one is likely to cost more than returning a small item.

What customers say

We did not find an independent customer review score for Trak Racer AU today, and Trustpilot data was not available when we checked. The store's own site promotes a "COMMUNITY" newsletter and a showroom where people can try the gear before buying, which points to a brand that wants hands-on trust rather than relying only on online reviews. Without a verified score, shoppers should weigh product specs and policies carefully rather than assume a rating.

Pros and cons

• Wide range of 250 products, from small accessories to full rigs and high-end wheelbases
• Rigs are said to be adjustable to fit different body sizes
• Products work across PS5, PS4, PS3, PS2, Xbox and PC
• A physical showroom lets buyers try a rig before ordering
• Spare parts and hardware are sold separately, useful for repairs or upgrades

Cons

• Shipping costs and delivery times were not readable on the site today
• Return window and refund terms were not readable on the site today

Who should buy Trak Racer AU?

Trak Racer AU is a reasonable choice for Australian shoppers who want a dedicated sim racing or flight sim setup and are prepared to pay for a rig built with adjustable, repairable parts rather than a low-cost frame. It also suits people near the showroom who want to try a rig in person first. It is a less good choice for anyone who needs guaranteed fast delivery, a confirmed easy-return policy, or a verified independent review score before spending money, since none of those were confirmed on the site today.

Tips before you order

• Contact customer support before ordering to confirm delivery time and shipping cost to your address, since this was not visible on the site today.
• Ask about the return process and any restocking or return shipping fees in writing before you buy a large rig.
• Check the specific product page for assembly time, since this varies a lot between models according to the FAQ.
• If possible, visit the showroom to sit in a rig before choosing a seat and cockpit size.
• Only use an installer approved or recommended by Trak Racer if you want the brand to stand behind the assembly.
