Next Level Racing GT Lite foldable cockpit review

Following on from the success of the F-GT Lite, Next Level Racing has launched a second foldable sim racing cockpit, called the GT Lite. Even though it’s basically a GT-only version of the F-GT Lite, it could be more appealing to some sim racers. Find out why in this review.

bought this for $9.99 at my local thrift store, bought it because it looked like a badass lawn chair, i had no idea 😂

[davidgomez]

This feels like an informative commercial with how professionally done it is lol

[djdeibys]

After I watched your video just bought this cockpit, thank you for this amazing video review.

Ironing board and sofa was my thing back in the PS1-PS3 days. Looking into this for PS5 now

I've owned and used this another for 6 months playing gt7 and I love it for it's storage but the only drawback I have found is the steering wheel mount. Your wheel attaches to a plate on a bar which is wrenched down with a single piece. Unfortunately only having that single point to secure it to a single bar I have found the tightening screw stripping itself by boring into the plastic casing and causing the wheel mount to move up and down during driving. It usually isn't a problem because the racing wheel rarely gets pushed up and down but can happen when in some heated races, forcing you to adjust mid race, which can be a disastrous. Luckily the clamps that are used to keep the wheel on the plate attached to the bar rest on my legs and keep the wheel from moving down. Because of this the clamps do dig into my thighs and can leave bruises or leave me sore. This product would be flawless if the single point screwdown for the wheel had two points of contact instead of one and would be much more sturdy

Watching this while sitting at my ironing board rig....

Thanks for being so thorough. This helped me choose the GT Lite over the F-GT Lite and Playseat Challenge!

This is the best review I've seen so far. I've just purchased the flight Simulator lite version, which is based on this. And haven't yet found a better review on these series, well done and thank you!

Ive owned and used this for over a year now. zero issues with my CSL DD. Takes the 8nm with ease in my oinion and I dont feel Im missing feedback...sure it might not eel as strong if it were more rigid but do you feel that will change your driving? I really don't. For what it is this is the best budget cockpit that has seat and all shifter mounts right out the box. Very durable too. I sfold seat forward and slide away from my PC setup and can be playing a non racing game within minutes. At my PC desk I use a monitor arm to swing forward and out my monitor...a must have! Love this thing! Hard to beat in this price range...if it can be beat!

Thanks for the in depth review, convinced me to go for it.

Bought this instead of the Playseat Challenge. Fantastic thorough review, really helped with the decision! Arriving in 2 days 😊

[VinnyMaxta]

very nice review thank you, I made the purchase, can't wait to try it myself!

Hello and thanks for the review! I'm just thinking about which of the two models to buy.
On the pictures of the F-GT Lite it looks as if the shifter is positioned further below and on the GT a little further up (which I think is better) Can that be? Or do they have the same position?

[DoC]

I just ordered mine yesterday, can't wait to get it!

[I_am_BiG_Al]

This is the one I bought for £160. I think I'll enjoy using it just as much as him lol. We've been playing shotoku on assetto corsa, I'm hooked!

[pompey]

Great video I just ordered this rig and a Logitech g920. Just crazy in two years the rig went up to 299 where i bought it.

[MuhammadHairulIzwanMohdZakee]

Hi, my living room has a space of 150cm from my tv console to my sofa to fit this rig. Do you think it will fit? I have been searching online for an answer if the length of the setup can be adjusted but to no avail.

[dmusp]

Hi, great review. Did you experience any bunny-hopping under hard braking like in your F-GT review?

[suzy]

I'm in complete agreement with the comment really good review and was going to buy another seat until I saw the your review of sold to me hands down.... review done by a user that is passionate about this product is a bonus they should be paying you....
However I am trying to find out information and finding not many people giving information im requiring clearly .... what is the maximum body weight in stone that can sit in this chair without causing damage to the chair? In short what is it maximum weight load?

I've had about 6 different weights said to me and none are the same.... so have come back to the source of me buying it so hopefully get the definitive answer.
Looking forward to your reply and thank you again for the review that has changed my gaming experience.
