INNOVATIVE FLEX-FREE NLR SEAT SLIDER & BRACKET SYSTEM
Moreover, the innovative Next Level Racing® Seat Sliding System has been designed and engineered to address a common problem to eliminate the issue of flex found in conventional seat sliders used in simulation. Additionally, the NLR ratchets are used to effortlessly slide your seat back and forth, enabling you to find the desired position for a flex-free racing experience.
Furthermore, the Next Level Racing® Seat Brackets are constructed from 5mm carbon steel. This construction provides the rigidity required for high-end sim racers. The new design offers more adjustability than ever before, supporting multiple seating positions with 98 adjustment options. In addition, the optional Next Level Racing® Elite Sim Racing Seats are the recommended choice for use with the Elite range of cockpits.

UNIVERSAL SLIDING PEDAL PLATES
The sliding pedal plates have been designed to provide easy and quick distance adjustments for pedals as well as compatibility with the continuously expanding pedal market. Equipped with 2 slotted 5mm carbon steel pedal plates with double precision folds, this setup ensures supreme rigidity but straightforward compatibility. Additionally, the pedal tray area has been designed to offer more angle, height, and distance adjustments to accommodate for a wider range of driving positions. Finally, the laser-etched markings on the aluminum profile assist with making accurate adjustments.

DESIGN SHOULD BE BEAUTIFUL & FUNCTIONAL
The F-GT Elite Lite cockpit provides a long list of unique custom-engineered components to provide users with the highest quality and performing product on the market. Instead of adapting industrial off-the-shelf components, we are pioneering the design of aluminum profile cockpits. Because of this, no industrial square brackets are required, as profile pieces are pre-machined to allow for quicker, easier, and stronger connections. In the same way, we focused on the finer details like the black electroplated premium spring ball T-slot nuts and the custom NLR end caps to combine for improved functionality and user experience. Finally, the combination of the premium finish and materials, custom components, and market-leading design come together for a visual masterpiece.

TAKE CONTROL UNDER
INTENSE RACING
High-end features such as a strong wheel and pedal base, previously exclusive to premium models, are now accessible at a mid-range price point. The precise design of multi-folded wheels, pedals, and plates, combined with thick carbon steel, effectively eliminates deflection and flex. As a result, this provides a more robust and rigid platform for users to attach their high-performance electronics. The FEA (Finite Element Analysis) Tests demonstrate the exceptional strength of these designs, comparing the innovative F-GT Elite Lite plate designs with the traditional flat steel or aluminum designs typically found in standard cockpits.
Notably, the Wheel Deck strength is comparable to 14.3mm steel or 20.85mm aluminum.

NLR HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE SHOCK ABSORPTION FEET
Uneven floors should never spoil your simulation experience. We have kept this in mind when designing our height adjustment feet allowing independent adjustments for the height of each corner of your cockpit. Not only do the custom-designed feet significantly enhance aesthetics compared to the typical industrial feet commonly used in the simulation market, but they also feature TPE shock absorption plugs. Finally, these plugs are specifically designed to absorb vibrations and provide grip on slippery surfaces.
|
EASE OF ASSEMBLY AND USE
As a result of designing custom components and using advanced manufacturing for precision machined holes in the aluminum profile, this allows easier assembly and more rigid connection as the profile bolts together. Therefore, the unique design seen throughout the Elite series means that the hassles of aligning fiddly corner brackets are a thing of the past. Combining the ease of assembly with the laser-etched line markings on the profile helps you to get racing quicker than any other aluminum cockpit before. Our team individually places each piece in custom foam-molded packaging. Therefore, careful placement ensures the product’s safety during transport and provides a seamless user experience from the moment the packaging is opened.
