Next Level Racing F-GT Pro Cockpit Launched

When it comes to finding the best sim racing cockpit, there are a few brands that immediately stand out. Next Level Racing is one of those brands. This is thanks to their excellent range of cockpits, including the mighty F-GT Elite 160, which is one of the best 8020 aluminium profile sim rigs you can buy.

Australian sim racing brand Next Level Racing has released a brand new cockpit today, and it’s an evolution of one of its most popular cockpits. The F-GT Pro takes the formula and configuration from the versatile F-GT cockpit and improves on almost every aspect.

What is the NLR F-GT Pro?

This is a cockpit that boasts a similar driving position to the original cockpit it’s based on. You can adjust the driving position from a reclined Formula position to a more upright GT driving position. Although this isn’t a new feature, the F-GT Pro improves the rigidity and design of the older cockpit.

More rigid frame

By employing a Ø50mm tubular steel frame, similar to the Trak Racer TR8 Pro, Next Level Racing has significantly improved frame stiffness. This style of tubular frame looks fantastic and sleek while improving the overall rigidity of the whole cockpit.

This improvement to the frame stiffness allows the cockpit to be able to handle more powerful direct drive wheel bases. Next Level Racing has stated that the F-GT Pro cockpit can accommodate up to 25Nm direct drive wheels.

FIA-approved cockpit

Next Level Racing has also taken this cockpit to the next level by gaining the official seal of approval from the FIA, making this an FIA-approved sim racing cockpit.

Tool free adjustments

One extensive area where cockpit brands can help their products stand above others is with easy adjustments. Allowing for tool free adjustments to the position of the seat, pedals, and racing wheel makes switching users or switching driving positions incredibly easy.

Upgradeable

As a sim racer spends more time in a cockpit, upgrades are a common path to take. You may want to add a keyboard tray or a direct monitor mount. It’s important for all cockpits to accommodate such upgrades.

This F-GT Pro cockpit makes upgrading easy, with first-party add-ons available that were designed specifically for the F-GT Pro. You can choose to add a monitor mount, shifter arm, keyboard tray, or even a complete motion platform.
