Next Level Racing GTElite Aluminium Simulator Cockpit Wheel Plate Edition
GTElite Wheel Plate Edition
Introducing the new Next Level Racing GTElite Cockpit. The GTElite cockpit's patent-pending design brings rigidity and stability to a new price point, making it the best mid-range aluminium profile cockpit on the market. With the attention to detail and engineering seen in our Elite series, the GTElite stands out among other mid-range cockpits for its superior rigidity, easier assembly, more included features, and a higher-quality finish.
Constructed for the mid-range category with a 4080 profile, the GTElite utilizes cutting-edge engineering and manufacturing, unique components, fixtures, and reinforcements to become the most rigid cockpit in its class. Thanks to this innovative process, the GTElite is, in some cases, stronger than conventional 16040 cockpits currently on the market.
Designed with a broad ecosystem in mind, the GTElite can be upgraded for compatibility with Next Level Racing Motion Products and can be transformed into a multi-position cockpit solution with ready set kits*.
*Motion Kit and Formula Kit sold separately.
Built To Be Strong
Conventional corner brackets are a thing of the past. The GTElite Cockpit uses 8mm thick Carbon Steel Reinforced Upright Direct Mounting plates, providing stronger reinforcement and connection between the vertical uprights and the base of the chassis. To eliminate movement and increase clamping force between components, custom-engineered, full channel width spring ball T-slot nuts are used throughout the build—plus through bolts for areas requiring higher clamp force and rigidity. The 8mm Carbon Steel Sandwich Plate also connects the vertical uprights and pedal plate, locking in and increasing reinforcement among the cockpit’s structural parts. The strength continues with precision-machined holes to bolt the base of the profile directly, delivering a more rigid foundation.
Take Control Under Intense Racing
High-end features, such as exceptionally strong wheel and pedal bases, are now available at a mid-range price point. Precisely designed multi-folded wheel, pedal, and shifter plates, combined with thick carbon steel, eliminate deflection and flex to create an ultra-rigid platform for mounting your highest-performing electronics. This strength is confirmed by FEA (Finite Element Analysis) Tests, which compare GTElite’s innovative plate designs to other flat steel or aluminium designs found in conventional cockpits.
- Wheel Deck equivalent to 14.3mm steel or 20.85mm aluminium
- Pedal Deck equivalent to 10.84mm steel or 15.83mm aluminium
- Shifter Plate equivalent to 18.51mm steel or 29.18mm aluminium
Innovative Flex-Free NLR Seat Sliders & Bracket System
The innovative Next Level Racing Seat Sliding System is engineered to eliminate the flex issues found in conventional seat sliders used in simulators. Included NLR ratchets make sliding your seat back and forth easy, letting you find the perfect position for a flex-free racing experience.
The Next Level Racing Seat Brackets are made from 4mm carbon steel for the rigidity competitive racers need, and the updated design offers more adjustability, supporting multiple seating positions with 55 adjustment combinations. The included Universal seat brackets allow for height and angle adjustment for bottom-mount seats, introducing new fine adjustment options for bottom-mount seat users seeking a personalized racing setup. Next Level Racing Elite Sim Racing Seats are recommended for use with the Elite range of cockpits, as they are purpose-built for elite sim racers.
