THE STORY
2015
WOODBOOST
The journey of OverPower started in 2015. Olli had spare time during his winter break from iRacing World Championship Grand Prix Series (iWCGPS) and decided to upgrade his sim racing rig to improve his performance. The price and quality of rigs available at the time did not meet Olli's expectations, so he started to build his own cockpit. From spruce, Olli created the legendary Woodboost that had two purposes – to have the perfect ergonomics for his body, and to have outstanding stability and rigidity. The great performance of the rig accompanied with hard work brought Olli further two bronze medals in the iWCGPS, after which the rig was left in a shed as Olli moved away from Finland.
2017
Master of R&D
A couple of years went by with Olli racing in Visa Vegas eRace and F1 Esports. After Olli moved back home, the Woodboost was given to Jouni - an exceptionally talented artisan with skills learned from The Edward Barnsley’s Workshop in England. Jouni designed a new cockpit based on the woodboost and the development of the OP Formula was on its way for perfection.
2019
OP Formula FiSRA Edition
OP Formula made its first appearance in the Finnish World Rally Championship race. Finnish Sim Racing Association (FiSRA) together with Finnish Motorsport (AKK) and Esports federations (SEUL) organized national championship finals for the fifth time together with 20 top-tier sim racers from Finland. The finals were a great success, not only in proving the concept of the OP Formula with the best sim racers in Finland, but also boosting sim racing scene nationally and granting FiSRA their first major recognition for their 5 years of work; the Karl Ebb's award.
2020
PUSHING TO PERFECTION

After finishing a few projects like Finnish Digital Rallicross Championship, Digital Racing SM, a total of 12 products' development, and the launch of OP production and webshop, we welcome you to join our journey to excellence in esports!
