ALL-IN-ONE MULTI-POSITION COCKPIT

Next Level Racing® Seat Supports are constructed with 5mm carbon steel to provide the rigidity needed for high-level simulation racers, and the new design provides more adjustability than ever before, with the goal of supporting multiple seating positions, with 98 adjustment options. The optional Next Level Racing® ES1 Elite seat is the recommended seat for use with the Elite range of cockpits, as the seat has been designed and optimised for elite simulation racers.

UNIVERSAL PEDAL SKID PLATES 

The sliding pedal plates have been designed to provide quick and easy pedal distance adjustment and compatibility with the ever expanding pedal market. Being equipped with 2 slotted, 5mm carbon steel pedal plates with double precision folds ensures maximum rigidity, yet easy compatibility. The pedal tray area has been designed to offer more angle, height and distance adjustments to accommodate a wider range of riding positions. Laser engraved markings on the aluminium profile aid precise adjustments.

CUSTOMISED AND ANODISED PROFILE

When it comes to aluminium profiles, not all are of the same quality and strength. The F-GT Elite features a high quality thick-walled profile and a custom 100mm x 40mm NLR profile for the cockpit base, with a total weight of 53kg. This custom shape of the base profile provides additional strength and refined aesthetics.

The anodised carbon grey profile is achieved through a process of chemical balancing and anodising, which not only looks stunning, but also provides a scratch-resistant finish compared to the typical scratch-prone black profile. The premium anodising process means that even the profile ends and holes are anodised for visual perfection as well as long-term protection. The anodising process, as a final step, also prevents chips or sharp edges, ensuring a safe installation of your new cockpit.

DESIGN MUST BE BEAUTIFUL AND FUNCTIONAL

The F-GT Elite cockpit offers a long list of unique components custom designed to provide users with the highest quality and performance product on the market. Instead of adapting off-the-shelf industrial components, we are innovating in the design of the aluminium profile cockpits. No industrial square brackets are required, the profile parts are prefabricated to allow faster, easier and stronger connections. We have focused on the finer details, such as premium quality, black galvanised T-slot ball spring nuts and custom NLR end caps, to combine for enhanced functionality. High-quality finish and materials, custom components and market-leading design come together to create a visual masterpiece.

MOTION ECOSYSTEM

Adding motion has never been easier, as the F-GT Elite cockpit is compatible with all Next Level Racing® Motion products and is designed for quick and easy installation with pre-made holes and brackets included.

HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE NLR SHOCK ABSORBER FEET

Uneven floors should never spoil your simulation experience. We've taken this into account when designing our height adjustable feet, which allow you to independently adjust the height of each corner of your cockpit. The custom-designed feet are not only a significant aesthetic improvement over the typical industrial feet commonly used in the simulation market, but also include TPE damping caps, designed to absorb vibration and provide grip on slippery surfaces. In terms of user experience, the custom Next Level Racing® Safety Step included in the cockpit allows for easier access in and out of the cockpit for drivers.

EASE OF ASSEMBLY AND USE

Custom component design and the use of advanced manufacturing to drill precision holes in the aluminium profile allows for easier assembly and a more rigid connection as the profile is bolted together. The improved design means that corner bracket alignment problems are a thing of the past. The combination of ease of assembly, with laser engraved line markings on the profile, will help you start racing faster than any previous aluminium cockpit. Each piece is individually placed in our custom foam packaging, to ensure the safety of the product while in transit and provide a seamless user experience from the moment the packaging is opened.
