The Next Level Racing® GTElite Lite Wheel Plate Edition is a dedicated GT-style aluminum-profile cockpit designed for users who want Elite-series construction, broad wheel and pedal adjustment, and a complete accessory package at a mid-range price. Its 40 × 40 and 40 × 80 mm aluminum structure, 8 mm reinforced upright plates, multi-folded wheel and pedal decks, NLR seat-slider system, adjustable feet, and accessory ecosystem create a high-rigidity foundation for serious sim racing hardware.
The GTElite Lite is a strong option for customers who want a permanent aluminum cockpit but do not need Formula seating out of the box or the heavier construction of the full GTElite.
The Wheel Plate Edition is intended primarily for compatible bottom-mounted wheelbases. Front- and side-mounted direct-drive systems require a different cockpit edition or compatible adapter solution.
The cockpit is supplied as a dedicated GT-style platform for sports-car, touring-car, endurance, rally, drift, and road-racing simulation.
