Next Level Racing® GTElite Lite Racing Simulator Cockpit- Wheel Plate Edition
Build your own Elite Journey with the best value aluminium profile cockpit. The GTElite Lite cockpit’s patent-pending design brings rigidity and stability into a new price point making it the best mid-range aluminium profile cockpit on the market. With attention to detail and engineering as seen on Next Level Racing®'s Elite series, the GTElite Lite compared to mid-range cockpits in its class is more rigid, easier to assemble, provides more inclusions, while providing a higher quality finish.
While constructed to suit the mid-range category with a “4080” profile, through cutting edge engineering and manufacturing, combined with unique components, fixtures, and reinforcements, the GTElite Lite is the most rigid mid-range cockpit. Through this innovative process, the GTElite Lite in some cases is stronger than conventional “16040” cockpits seen on the market.
With an extensive ecosystem in mind, the GTElite Lite is upgradable to be compatible with Next Level Racing® Motion Products and can be transformed into a multi-position cockpit solution with the ready set kits (Motion Kit and Formula kit need to be purchased separately.).

Built to be Strong
Conventional corner brackets are things of the past. The GTELite Lite Cockpit utilises an 8mm thick Carbon Steel Reinforced Upright Direct Mounting plates, for a stronger reinforcement and connection between the vertical uprights and the base of the chassis. To eliminate any movement and increase the clamping force between the components, custom-engineered full channel width spring ball T-slot nuts are used throughout the build + through bolts for areas that require higher clamp force and rigidity. The 8mm Carbon Steel Sandwich Plate also provides a connection between the vertical uprights and the pedal plate to lock in and increase the reinforcement between the structural parts of the cockpit. The strength continues with precision machined holes to bolt the base of the profile directly for a more rigid foundation.
Take Control Under Intense Racing
High-end features like strong wheel and pedal base like never seen before now available at a mid-range price point. Precisely designed multi-folded wheel, pedal, plates combined with thick carbon steel removes deflection and flex to provide a stronger and more rigid platform for users to attach their highest performing electronics. The strength can be seen in the FEA (Finite Element Analysis) Tests comparing the innovative GTElite Lite plate designs to other flat steel or aluminium designs seen in conventional cockpits on the market.
