Next Level Racing GT ELITE FORD Wheel Plate Edition
- Seadme tüüp: Racing Sim
- Värv: Sinine
Introducing an official Ford licensed product, the Next Level Racing GTElite Ford GT Edition cockpit. The patent-pending design of the GTElite Ford GT Edition cockpit provides rigidity and stability in a new price bracket, making it the best mid-range aluminium profile cockpit on the market. With a premium blue anodised finish, laser-etched Ford Oval logo, Ford GT logo and laser-etched iconic Ford GT stripes, the GTElite Ford GT Cockpit completes the Ford brand experience for the user. With attention to detail and engineering, as seen in our Elite Series, the GTElite Ford Edition compared to mid-range cockpits in its class is stiffer, easier to fit, provides more inclusions while providing a higher quality finish.
Although engineered to fit the mid-range category with a 4080 profile, through state-of-the-art engineering and manufacturing, combined with unique components, hardware and reinforcements, the GTElite Ford Edition is the most rigid mid-range cockpit. Thanks to this innovative process, the GTElite Ford GT Edition is in some cases stronger than the conventional 16040 cockpits seen on the market. With an extensive ecosystem in mind, GTElite can be upgraded to be compatible with Next Level Racing Motion Products and has the ability to be transformed into a multi-position cockpit solution using pre-built kits*.
*The Motion Kit and Formula kit must be purchased separately.
Built to be strong
Conventional corner brackets are a thing of the past. The GTElite Ford GT Edition cockpit uses 8mm thick carbon steel reinforced vertical mounting plates, giving the GTElite Ford GT Edition cockpit a stronger reinforcement and connection between the vertical supports and the chassis base. To eliminate any movement and increase clamping force between components, specially designed full channel width T-slot ball nuts + through bolts are used throughout the structure in areas that require more clamping force and rigidity. An 8mm carbon steel sandwich plate also provides the connection between the vertical supports and the pedal plate to lock and increase the reinforcement between the structural parts of the cockpit. Strength continues with precision-machined holes that directly bolt the profile base for a stiffer foundation.
The complete Ford experience
GTElite Ford GT Edition cockpits allow the Ford community to interact with the brand they love and collaborate with the growing racing simulator community. The cockpit is finished in anodised blue, representing Ford's iconic colours. The GTElite Ford GT Edition cockpit provides an unforgettable brand experience and features laser-engraved Ford and GT logos. The iconic GT stripes are laser engraved at the base of the cockpit for a premium finish. Users can complement their brand by adding the Next Level Racing ES1 Ford GT seat*. The ES1 Ford GT Edition seat combines the GT experience with an embossed GT logo on the headrest to complete the look of the cockpit. The seat features Team Fordzilla blue seatbelts with GT logo and a Team Fordzilla floor mat.
*Next Level Racing ES1 Ford GT Edition seat sold separately (ES1 Ford GT Edition seat comes with Fordzilla branded seat belts and GT branded floor mat).
Take control in intense racing
Advanced features such as a power wheel and pedal base never seen before are now available in the mid-price range. Precision-engineered, multi-folded wheel, pedal and handlebar plates combined with thick carbon steel remove flex and deflection, providing a stronger and stiffer platform for users to mount their high-end electronics. The strength can be seen in FEA (Finite Element Analysis) tests comparing GTElite's innovative plate design with other flat steel or aluminium structures found in conventional cockpits on the market.
Wheel deck equivalent of 14.3 mm steel or 20.85 mm aluminium
Pedal Deck equivalent to 10.84 mm steel or 15.83 mm aluminium
Shifter Plate equivalent to 18.51 mm steel or 29.18 mm aluminium
Innovative bracket and handle system NLR
Next Level Racing's innovative seat slider system has been designed and engineered to eliminate the flexibility problem found in conventional seat sliders used in simulators. NLR ratchets are included to easily slide the seat forward and backward to find the desired position to keep racing bend-free.
Next Level Racing's seatposts are made from 4mm carbon steel to provide the stiffness required for high-performance riders, and the new design provides greater adjustability to support multiple seating positions with 55 adjustment combinations. Users can also use the included universal seat brackets to provide height and angle adjustment for the lower seats. This is a new range of adjustments introduced for lower-mounted seat users that will provide finer adjustments for a more personalised racing experience. Next Level Racing Elite Sim Racing Seats are recommended for use with Elite cockpits, as they have been designed and optimised for elite racing drivers.

The improved design means that the hassle of positioning awkward corner locks is a thing of the past. Combining the ease of assembly with the laser-engraved line markings on the GTElite Ford GT Edition cockpit profile helps you race faster than any other aluminium cockpit. Each piece is individually housed in our custom foam packaging to keep the product safe in transit, ensuring seamless handling from the moment you open the packaging, completing the Elite experience.
