Dom's review of Next Level Racing GT Track Cockpit

Pros: Strong frame. Easy to assemble. Great adjustability. Surprisingly comfortable chair.Cons: The setup manual is not that great.Also, it would be nice to have a pedal base quick-release option for switching between racing and flying.

Get track

I bought this simulator because of its size and the portability provided by the wheels.Pros: The product is well made. The fit and finish is really good. Next Level racing did a really good job on making this product. The product is also packaged very well. The hardware comes in a blister pack. The instruction book is in color and along with a link to an instruction video in the instruction guide it's not too bad to put together. The rig is sturdy, and the seat is very comfortable. It has a lot of room for adjustments between the steering wheel, pedal deck, and seat. It looks really good and everything looks neat.Cons: The only thing I have a complaint with is that the shifter mount should be offset some so it does not come in contact with the seat when it is ... MoreI bought this simulator because of its size and the portability provided by the wheels.Pros: The product is well made.

Great Racing Cockpit

The Next Level Racing GTtrack Simulator Cockpit is a great cockpit.The cockpit was packaged really well. Mine only had minimal scratches on the finish from shipping, but they are not easily seen or noticeable.The instructions included with the cockpit are detailed and easy to follow (Link to video instructions are also in the printed instructions). It took me about 2 hours (taking my time and having multiple distractions) to assemble the cockpit and get everything adjusted perfectly for myself .The cockpit can easily accept multiple wheels and peripherals (currently using a Logitech G920) including Direct Drive wheels. Once I got everything adjusted for myself, all I can say is this thing is solid. There is minimal (if any) flex once the hardware is all ... MoreThe Next Level Racing GTtrack Simulator Cockpit is a great cockpit.The cockpit was packaged really well.

I am currently using the included caster wheels to make moving the cockpit easier as this thing is heavy (even with wheels unlocked while using, the cockpit barely moves). The seat is a little tight for me at first (250 lbs) but should break in.

In no way "essential" but loving it

I'm a hardcore track rat who turned to sim-racing to cope with the Covid-19 lockdown. After several weeks with this high-end driving cockpit, my conclusion is that it's not at all essential. I'm sure rigs costing half as much would be more-than-acceptable in terms of supporting a good simulator rig. But I have to say that I love the GTtrack. It's way over-built, solid, and I'm sure it'll last forever. It's also almost infinitely adjustable -- so don't torque any bolts until you've "dialed-in" your driving position. But once set up, it's awesome and the positioning of the wheel, pedals, and shifter is almost identical to my race car. My Fanatec components mounted easily in the pre-drilled holes/slots. Even the seat's pretty good, although I didn't install the silly ... MoreI'm a hardcore track rat who turned to sim-racing to cope with the Covid-19 lockdown.

Kevin's review of Next Level Racing GT Track Cockpit

Pros: Very sturdy build, rock solid. Purchased because its virtually unique in being on castors so can be wheeled in and out of the lounge quickly and easily before and after use, very home friendly. The seat belts add authenticity and lock you into a purposeful position for excellent simulator control. Not disappointed at all with this choice of cockpit.Cons: Would be great if there was easier adjustability for the seat and pedal platform but not a deal breaker.

Not exactly cheap - but very much worth it!

So having recently moved house and realising that I had room to spare, I decided to indulge myself and get a permanent racing setup done. I went for the GT Track setup having had no issues with the previous fold-away offering from Next Level Racing.The instructions (as with other NLR kit) were very clear and well presented. The components included (as with other NLR kit also) had too few black washers within it. Not quite sure why they neglect to provide enough of the cheapest part of their kits within the box?Anyways, it's a very good piece of kit - more so as there's the optional motion packs to be fitted, should they ever drop to a price that us mere mortals can afford. One word of warning is that the delivery arrives on a pallet and is VERY heavy. Make sure ... MoreSo having recently moved house and realising that I had room to spare, I decided to indulge myself and get a permanent racing setup done.

One word of warning is that the delivery arrives on a pallet and is VERY heavy. Make sure you have means to actually take delivery inside as it will only be delivered to your door.Finally, the last piece of advice I can give is to only loosely tighten the bolts up before using the seat properly. I spent a good amount of time adjusting the height of the wheel, the angle of the wheel, the distance of the pedal set and the distance away for the gearstick, before it felt comfortable.

One of the BEST Sim Cockpits you can buy!

There are so many race sim cockpits out there, but this one.... I have used this for two weeks now and I can sit in it for hours never getting uncomfortable. There are endless adjustments to make it fit you perfectly. It takes a little bit of time and patients but once dialed in it feels great. There is no flex in the pedals or the steering connection. I have not used the shifter yet but I have it installed. I put the wheels on to allow me to move it to the corner when not in use and moves so effortlessly.This is a Fantastic cockpit and anyone that is interested in sim racing on your own or competing online you cant go wrong with this rig. Saving money to get the motion platform to take it to the next level.

Over-priced and under-engineered

Not a good rig for the price. Adjustability looks like it would be flexible, but is very limited in practice. I recommend a Sim Lab GT1-Evo or similar aluminum extrusion rig instead.Since the wheel deck is only adjustable diagonally, if you need to only adjust height, you have to move the seat and pedals because front to back is affected too. Also, the wheel deck is mis-designed so that it can tilt down 35º but up only 10º. You'd never need that much down tilt, but 10º up is not quite enough to suit all setups.Tilt of the pedal deck is based on two long bolts with nuts surrounding the deck plate. This is extremely janky and is not suitable for a stable pedal surface, being difficult to adjust and tighten properly. It's just not a well thought out, solid ... MoreNot a good rig for the price.

This is extremely janky and is not suitable for a stable pedal surface, being difficult to adjust and tighten properly. It's just not a well thought out, solid system.Flex is not something you want in any rig, especially not at this price. The wheel deck is *not* suitable for DD wheels and will flex during use. Also, over time the wheel deck uprights will begin to creak and make noise. This is not resolvable by tightening bolts. The pedal deck itself is too thin and flexes under heavy braking. This rig is supposed to be on the higher end of NLR's line, and was at the top before the Elite was released, but it is not suitable for load cell brake pedals.The comfort of the seat is subjective, but I found the seat to be uncomfortable for long sessions and the seat material would make me sweat. I prefer cloth seats for this reason.Because of the nature of the steel pipe, cable management around this rig is difficult and ugly, and adding accessories like fans or attached keyboard trays is almost impossible. The standalone NLR keyboard tray is not a good substitute for a tray mounted to the rig, especially, again, for the price of theirs.I sold this rig and returned the keyboard tray, subsequently purchasing an aluminum rig and better seat. I recommend skipping this rig and getting an aluminum one instead. There are plenty of companies selling aluminum rigs for around this price. Sim Lab, Trak Racer, Rig Metal, etc.

Solid build quality

You really can't go wrong with the NLR GTTrack cockpit. Even though it is priced a bit on the higher side as far as sim racing cockpits go, the build quality is excellent and it comes with everything you need. Instructions are clear and there are also build videos from NLR racing online if you need further instructions. I find the seat to be comfortable even after doing hour long or more races. The wheel mount is solid and does not shake or move at all with my Fanatec Clubsport 2.5 base. The mount should have no issues with a DD wheel either from what I can tell.My only small compliant is that I wish there was an included way to raise the pedals. This really is only a problem if you incorporate the NLR Motion v3 platform as that will raise the seat about 6 inches. ... MoreYou really can't go wrong with the NLR GTTrack cockpit.

I ended up making a solid wood box to raise my pedals, but it would be nice if that adjustability was part of the design.
