Hawley man turns backyard shed into full-motion racing simulator, hopes to bring concept to Fargo

HAWLEY, Minn. (Valley News Live) - A Hawley man has turned his backyard shed into a full racing simulator, and now he’s hoping to bring that passion to Fargo.

Mitchell Dahlen, founder of MM Simulations, started sim racing after breaking his ankle.

“It started as a, I wanted one of these type of a thing, but when I looked at the price tag, I didn’t want to pay the price tag,” Dahlen said.

What separates this simulator from others is price — nearly half the price of its competitors.

Just like you would at the driving range, but you’re going to the driving range,” Dahlen said.
