Next Level Racing GTTrack Simulator Cockpit NLR-S009

It took me a weekend to get this thing set up, but it was only a part of my room reorg project (still got some cable management to go 🤦‍♂️). While there were a lot of pieces, everything was pretty straightforward and the material quality was top notch. I also bought the monitor stand and mouse/keyboard tray (sold separately), which just adds to the experience. It showed up in a giant heavy box that I ended up just leaving on the landing. There is a second box inside with all the hardware and parts, the rest of the space is the chair. Do yourself a favor and just carry the chair and smaller box separately, it’ll save your back. The entire frame is very strong and bolted down everywhere. They also included extra support for the pedals and a lot of extra hardware; this thing is a tank. I would be very surprised if any piece of the cockpit breaks before all of my Logitech gear. I can finally drive without worrying about pulling too hard on things or the position of my seat and just focus on what matters. With none of those small distractions, it’s a much more rewarding and immersive experience to race. After racing and drifting in this cockpit, I have found it to be a vast improvement to my previous mobile mount. I had to move the old one over by my desk, connect everything, and then launch Asseto. Now, with a dedicated cockpit, I no longer have to move or setup anything. I use a DisplayPort switch between the sim monitor and my desk monitor so that I only need to press one button to switch back to desk gaming, and a usb hub to allow my Logitech steering setup to always stay connected. If you are looking to set up a dedicated sim station, I would highly recommend this cockpit. It’s a very solid base to build from. The quality of this company’s products have made me rethink the Logitech steering wheel, as it now feels cheap comparatively; I will probably be upgrading to direct drive soon. This cockpit deserves the upgrade. Read more

I purchased this for use with my Fanatec DD1 F1 and v3 pedals, and am extremely happy with the setup. I get no flex from anywhere and was able to bolt on my setup with ease. I play on PC in my room as well as on PS4 in the living room, so having a setup I could move between rooms was desireable. I originally started with the DD wheel stand to do this, which while incredibly rigid was NOT easy to move. I picked this up, and couldn't be happier. The casters roll smoothly and lock without any drama to create a stable setup in either room. Anyone can push it around, even on our carpet. There are a couple small areas I think could be improved, though no deal-breakers. When resting your foot between races I missed having a floorboard level with the pedals. Your feet go to the ground, which I did not like. Also, I didn't like their provided mounting location for a handbrake, which didn't satisfy my desire to match my street car's positioning. I modified both of these items which you can see in the pics attached to my review. I added an extra pedal tray to create a "full floorboard" feeling between the pedals and the seat, which lets you step in and out - this bolted right on with no modifications (you'd need to order a replacement pedal tray or have access to one to do this). I also used an additional shifter mount (purchasable separately) to create the more street-car style hand-brake mount. I did need to modify the mount slightly to do this. With those mods, I think it's near perfect, but even out of the box it's one of the nicest rigs I've seen. Read more

Solid build quality with a fairly easy setup. Takes about 45min to put together. The seatbelt mounts on the back of the rig could be better positioned as I constantly need to adjust every time I sit down, although this could just be a 1 off case. Overall, highly recommend this for anyone looking for a quality sim rig that's built to last. I've been using for several years now with no issues Read more

Overall it’s a great rig, very solid, lots of adjustments, comfortable seat but then there’s the seat rails. The rails, or sliders, were pretty much useless as received, any amount of pressure on the brake sent the seat sliding back because it wouldn’t latch. Of the two latches, one was fine but the other was too tight and wouldn’t engage the latch. A little work loosened it up and now it works as intended. The only other problem I see is the tilt adjustment on the pedals could stand to be a tad more robust as the bolts don’t have much spacing between them to the reduce the amount of flex there is now. Oh, that crossover in the middle of the frame doesn’t feel too good on your heel if you bump it, I went to the hardware store and got some pipe insulation and fixed it and used the leftover insulation on the front for a bumper of sorts. Also, for the price you’d think they could add a short piece of wire loom to make cable management easier, fortunately I had some leftover from a stereo install. It’s really a must do if you have to move the rig constantly, I also zip tied the power supply to the bottom of the frame so it’s not laying on the floor. All and all, I do like this rig even with some of the problems it started with and would buy it again. Read more
