Do I regret buying the Next Level Racing F-GT cockpit?

Do I regret buying the Next Level Racing F-GT cockpit? In this video I wanted to talk about the Next Level Racing F-GT sim rig a bit more as I have been getting a lot of comments about it recently and I wanted to clear a few things up about it.

We usually always regret buying what we do. because something better is always there to remind us
that had we spent a little more, this is how much better it'd be.

Had mine since January... no issue with it at all. I love it. I am 6'5" tall and fit in it great. I beat the hell out of my Elite pedals and I don't recognize any issue with the brake flex... seems people are a bit nit-picky. My concern is upgrading to a direct drive wheel. I am not sure it could handle it without some tweaking. Sitting in the F1 position you just feel comfortable, there is a zero-G kind of vibe to it like on good adjustable beds (I have one, I know)... I can play for hours and hours and have no fatigue in the seat.

I wanted to try this out because i loved racing all my life.. i dont regret it. I ended up getting a amazing set up second hand for cheap. Tgt2/loadcell pedals/ tha8 shifter /sf1000 wheel and next level racing track rig. This cost me 1k cad and i love it and even mt buddy who has a 12k rig actually was blown away how good it felt. If you want plug and play and enjoyable and something you feel u can compete with, look into this set up. Now i know 1k might be too much for some people but comparable to how people jump into 3-4-5-6 k for a set up this is amazing value. Hope this helps .

I'm in Africa so it impossible for me to get this beauty even if i have the money. It's very frustrating. You have the money to get it but you can't. So enjoy guys your sims and don't complain too much. One love

[MrMikap]

Guess it is all about expectations and personal demands. Some people even complain about noticing a tiny bit of cogging in their dd wheelbases when turned off while I am completely hapy with my gear-driven Logitech G920

[rubikmonat]

Absolutely no need for bolsters when there aren't any lateral G forces. Looks like it has about twice the padding of a real racecar seat too. I suspect people who find it uncomfortable might not be making the most of the adjustments provided.

Mine comes in on Tuesday. Excited to try it out!

[e.c.mracing]

I just bought it and I love it only complaint is my legs rest against the side rails and it hurts after long sessions so I bought roll bar padding and put it on the side rails and up rails that hold the wheel plate and it’s now perfect! Oh and the newer models have support bars for the wheel plate and they also come with support brackets for the pedal plate! Very very sturdy now as they listened to the customer complaints !

[davidcollison]

This video answered all my questions about this cockpit I stuck between buying this and the omega gt titan. Just not sure which one to go for most important thing for me is flex.

[kilsbyritchie]

It comes with support struts when in f1 position for pedal plate

[supertechvecog]

Had mine since March this year right before quarantine, and quite honestly I do believe your initial video for the FGT persuaded me to purchase it. With that said, the FGT has been wonderful in F1 and GT positions. I use a Logitech G29/PS4 and it works great. The seating is great for endurance races as I race in a league. But, I do use the lumbar as thigh support for long stints in GT position. I’ve got the butt kicker gamer 2 on the way, along with the true brake mod from AXM... we’ll see how those two items work with the rig once I get them installed. One more thing, I did purchase the monitor stand as well, using a 35” MSI curved screen and it works pretty good. All in all great rig and accessories, great reviews as well...keep em coming!

Finally a video that adresses these common complaints

[jobinsone]

I like mine very much. I’m 6’7 and it works great for me.

[aidanrice]

@jason I’ve contacted NLR re the monitor mount and they are sending me updated / stronger outer arms. I tried so hard on the weekend with your hacks, and even used a $4 “pole” from K Mart that is 120cm long to support the outer arms, but the lack of adjustability makes it so hard to use... I’ll keep you updated re the new arms

[tugainbristolgaming]

Thanks for sharing this video with your thoughts. Bought this rig today, just gonna get it probably in a month 😅

[mikeoxmaul]

I don't see why the flex in the pedal tray would be an issue, it doesn't exactly take a degree in engineering to figure out how to fix it

[kenbarthSimAVtor]

I use mine with castors for flight simming; no regrets eh! The lumbar cushion is a nice bonus eh! I have only used in GT position for sim flying; as I have a Playseat Formula Red for F1 racing eh

[codygreer]

Has anyone else found that the bracket that holds the seat position has just wear down and now just doesn't stay up?

[MrPau]

This work with gran turismo dd pro wheel?

[Tynelia]

I SURE DO! I've had this for years and years and as the time goes on I keep finding more and more downfalls and issues. For 500 it's okay but if you were to get one in 2024 get used and don't pay full because it isn't worth it anymore
