The Next Level Racing® F-GT Elite Lite Front & Side Mount Edition delivers elite-level performance, adjustability, and structural rigidity in a mid-range 4080 aluminum profile cockpit. Designed with direct input from professional racers and esports teams, this cockpit sets the benchmark for strength, stability, and versatility in the "Lite" category—without sacrificing the premium feel of a true 8020-style cockpit.

Engineered with precision laser-cut carbon steel mounting plates, 8mm thick DD side plates, and reinforced 4080 aluminum rails, the F-GT Elite Lite is built to support the world’s strongest direct-drive wheelbases. With 70° of tilt adjustment, refined ergonomics, and fast multi-position seat/wheel/pedal adjustments, racers can easily transition between Formula, GT, Hybrid, Truck, and Tank seating layouts.

Used globally by top-tier esports organizations including Ferrari Esports, Team Fordzilla, and Veloce, the Elite Lite system combines pro-level rigidity with increased affordability, making it the ultimate value for serious racers demanding premium performance.

FAQ

FAQ

What’s the difference between the Front & Side Mount Edition and the standard F-GT Elite Lite?
The Front & Side Mount Edition adds bespoke DD mounting (side plates + front mount + “wings”) with up to 70° of tilt for direct-drive wheelbases. It’s the better choice if you run medium–high torque DD motors or want finer angle tuning.
Which direct-drive wheelbases are supported?
Designed for most popular DD systems, including Fanatec DD1/DD2/Podium, Simucube 2 (Sport/Pro/Ultimate), Simagic Alpha/Alpha Mini, VRS DirectForce Pro, Mige 130, and Kollmorgen AKM (OSW/Leo Bodnar). If your base follows common front/side mounting patterns, it will fit.
Does it include a seat?
The cockpit is supplied as a frame with mounts/plates. Pair it with any compatible side-mount or bottom-mount sim racing seat (NLR ERS series recommended) and standard slider/seat brackets.
Can I switch between Formula, GT, Hybrid, Truck, and Tank positions?
Yes—this is an all-in-one multi-position cockpit. Wheel, pedal, and seat geometry can be adjusted for true Formula, GT, Hybrid, Truck, and Tank layouts.
Is it compatible with motion platforms?
Yes—designed for easy integration with Next Level Racing Motion Platforms. The pre-machined aluminum profile simplifies mounting.
How rigid is the Elite Lite vs a typical steel rig?
The Elite Lite uses 4080 aluminum profile with laser-cut carbon steel mounts. It’s significantly more rigid than most entry/mid steel frames, making it suitable for stronger DD wheelbases.
What about assembly and footprint?
Pre-machined holes and labeled hardware help streamline the build. Allow a few hours depending on experience. Footprint is similar to other 8020-style GT/formula cockpits and fits most gaming rooms.
Which pedals and shifters are supported?
The adjustable pedal deck and shifter/handbrake provisions support popular Logitech, Thrustmaster, Fanatec, Moza, Heusinkveld-style patterns, and more. Height/angle/distance adjustments are included.
