Next Level Racing F-GT Shift Formula and GT Simulator Cockpit

The Next Level Racing F-GT Shift is a Formula and GT simulator cockpit built for drivers who refuse to pick just one discipline. Its patent-pending Quick Fold Mechanism moves the rig from an upright GT seating position to a low, legs-forward Formula position in under 5 seconds, without a single tool, and a third Hybrid position sits in between for even more range. That makes one compact cockpit ready for open-wheel championships, GT and endurance events or road-car sessions on the same evening. It joins the F-GT family as the fastest-converting model of the range, aimed at sim racers who want serious hardware support and quick versatility without dedicating a room to a fixed rig.

The frame is made from rigid 42 mm diameter tubular steel tied together by bespoke cast-metal hinges and reinforced connections, giving the stiffness needed for high-end direct drive wheelbases, high-performance and load cell pedals, and a dedicated shifter. Next Level Racing has tested the cockpit with wheelbases up to 25 Nm and recommends up to 15 Nm for the best stability. It supports drivers from 120 to 200 cm tall and up to 150 kg. The pedal plate, rear leg, seat backrest angle, wheel plate tube height and front wheel plate all adjust without tools, so each driver can dial in a natural position in Formula, GT or Hybrid mode.

Comfort comes from the reclining SIMAERO Mesh seat, a suspended, breathable mesh design with an open structure that stays cool through long stints. A heavy-duty shifter arm is included and mounts on the left or right side of the cockpit. The frame is finished in gloss black with matte black accents, and concealed wheels make it easy to roll the rig out of the way. Hardware from Simucube, Asetek, Fanatec, MOZA, SIMAGIC, Logitech, Thrustmaster and more is supported, and the HF8 and HF8 Pro haptic pads fit discreetly beneath the seat fabric. Please note this is a cockpit only; the wheelbase, wheel, pedals, shifter and haptic pad are sold separately.
