The Next Level Racing® ERS3 Hypercool Ventilated Sim Racing Seat adds a fully integrated active-cooling system to the wide, comfortable ERS3 reclining-seat platform. Six internal fans—three in the seat base and three in the backrest—push air through breathable SIMAERO Mesh and fabric to help reduce heat buildup during endurance racing, commercial use, and long simulator sessions.
The standard ERS3 Fabric & SIMAERO Mesh Edition improves passive airflow, but the Hypercool goes further by actively moving air through the seat base and backrest. That distinction matters for drivers who routinely finish sessions hot, race in warm rooms, or operate simulators for several hours at a time.
We recommend the Hypercool for endurance racers, commercial simulator centers, event installations, warmer climates, and users who want an integrated cooling solution without adding external seat pads, loose wiring, or DIY fans.
The Hypercool uses six internal fans positioned throughout the seat structure. Three fans serve the seat base and three serve the backrest, creating targeted airflow across the primary body-contact zones.
Direct airflow through the lower cushion to reduce heat buildup beneath the driver.
Move air through the backrest to help reduce warmth across the lower and mid back.
The upholstery and internal structure are designed to distribute fan-driven airflow.
The plug-and-play cooling system offers high and low settings so the driver can select the airflow level that best suits the room temperature and session length.
Provides gentler continuous airflow for moderate temperatures and longer casual sessions.
Increases airflow for intense racing, warmer rooms, and endurance use.
Breathable SIMAERO Mesh and fabric allow the internal fans to move air through the seating surface. The upholstery remains more breathable than a coated PU surface even when the fans are turned off.
Mesh contact areas allow the integrated fan system to move air toward the driver.
The seat still benefits from breathable material when powered cooling is not in use.
Designed to reduce the warm, enclosed feel that can develop during long sessions.
The Hypercool retains the core ERS3 structure with cold-molded foam and dual locking recliners. The backrest can be adjusted for different simulator positions while maintaining support during braking and repeated cockpit use.
Provides shaped support designed to resist premature sagging and deformation.
Uses locking mechanisms on both sides for improved backrest support and fast angle adjustment.
The Hypercool uses the wide, open-fit ERS3 geometry and includes adjustable bottom-mounted seat sliders for fast forward and backward positioning.
Accommodates a broader range of users than many narrow fixed-back seats.
Suitable for residential, shared, event, and commercial simulator use.
Allows quick fore-and-aft adjustment for different driver heights and pedal reach.
The ERS3 Hypercool is a bottom-mounted seat intended for compatible cockpit frames. Next Level Racing lists compatibility across several racing-cockpit families and also supports use with the HF8 Haptic Feedback Gaming Pad.
Compatible with supported Next Level Racing Elite aluminum-profile cockpits.
Compatible with supported GTtrack and GTSeat Add-On configurations.
Compatible with supported GTRacer cockpit configurations.
Can be paired with the separate HF8 pad when cooling and removable haptics are both desired.
Active airflow is most valuable during multi-hour racing sessions.
Helps users who race in garages, upstairs rooms, studios, or warmer climates.
A useful comfort upgrade where simulators operate repeatedly throughout the day.
Helps keep guest drivers more comfortable under lights and in busy venues.
Designed for users who find passive mesh alone insufficient.
Wide fit and included sliders support shared residential and commercial stations.
