Next Level Racing Elite ES1 HYPERCOOL Ventilated Sim Racing Seat

The Next Level Racing Elite ES1 HYPERCOOL Ventilated Sim Racing Seat takes the proven ES1, a seat trusted by thousands of sim racers for its strength and race seat ergonomics, and adds an integrated active cooling system. It is built for endurance racers who want hour four to feel like hour one, and for anyone whose sim room gets warm during long sessions. Like the standard ES1, it is a fixed-back bucket seat designed for the demands of cockpit-based simulation; the HYPERCOOL version adds ventilation through breathable SIMAERO Mesh upholstery in place of the standard suede finish.

Cooling is engineered in, not retrofitted. Two integrated centrifugal fan motors, chosen for their airflow efficiency over conventional axial fans, use fluid-mechanics principles to push a steady stream of air through the SIMAERO Mesh fabric, targeting the areas where heat builds up the most. Fan speed is adjusted continuously with a premium metal-finished potentiometer knob, so you can change airflow in real time without breaking concentration. The fans run from the included power adapter (12 V, 2 A, 24 W output), and PU molded foam cushions work with the mesh to breathe as you drive.

Underneath, the rotationally molded LLDPE shell delivers the rigidity needed for precise load cell braking, supporting users up to 250 kg with a waist up to 42″ and heights from 160 to 210 cm. Premium brass over-molded inserts support ButtKicker, seat belt, and seat slider setups. GT seating works out of the box with side seat brackets, and adding the Next Level Racing Universal Seat Brackets (sold separately) unlocks Hybrid and Formula positions. It fits the Elite Series cockpits with side seat brackets and most third-party cockpits with side mounting; check your cockpit’s measurements first. It measures 77 x 50 x 85 cm and weighs 12.6 kg.
