Sim-Lab GT1 Evo cockpit review

The Sim-Lab GT1 Evo is an outstanding cockpit, holding its own against rigs costing nearly twice as much. The aluminium profile construction makes for a strong and stable frame that's compact and highly adjustable.

With all that said, my favourite thing about this rig is that it can adapt with you as you upgrade your sim racing equipment. Find out how in this review.

Had my GT1 Evo for over a year now and have loved every minute.

Clear and concise review. Exactly what I needed. Made my final decision based on your video. Ordering tomorrow. Thanks!

[Niloc]

Super well thought out and presented! Thank you! I really want to get this rig, and it seems like a pretty good value for how sturdy it is, even with the 155 euro shipping to the US.

Currently waiting for mine to arrive, this got me excited! Although i'm a bit scared of the assembly, never done anything like it.

Great review!! quick question if... I currently have the GT Omega Apex Wheel Stand with Rear Seat frame and was wondering if I could use the seat with the Sim-Lab GT1? The Seat has a slider... hoping it will be a straight bolt on. Thanks

Ciao, do you know TR1 always from Sim-lab? Which is your opinion comparing it with GT1-Evo? Great review on GT1! Well done!

Which monitor are you using? And what size do you recommend? Is 32" enough?

[jgloc]

By now you've tried the GT Elite too, which would you prefer, the GT1 Evo or the GT Elite?

[nicofarella]

Great review! What do I need to have my rig finished and ready? 1) GT1-Evo cockpit 2) Speed1 seat 3) Bucket seat bracket set. Is it enough? I've seen Sparco seat slider, but I didn't see it in you video so I assume it is optional... I don't really need it. Thank you in advance :)

I have a 34” curved monitor. What adapter did you use to mount with simlabs flat vesa plate? Thanks for the vid.

[microwaveaspoon]

Can you move the shifter to the right?

[martinmacchicanto]

That monitor looks great, whats the size?

[nxn]

This was recommended to me as well, but having a hard time finding it in Japan. I'll keep looking around though.

It looks like this would be good for an F1 setup, no?

[KaLaka]

How's the seat height and width? I'm 191 cm (6'3) and pretty wide, will it be good for me? Watched the video, so the seat in the video isn't for me probably. What could be? Choosing a seat seems to be difficult.

Well, I'm convinced that this is the rig I want now. Ordered the NLR GT-Track, but haven't received it yet. My biggest concern about the GT Track is the adjustability of the wheel deck and shifter mount. GT-Evo seems to have every possible adjustment I can think of.

Does anyone have any idea what the weight capacity is on the GT1 Evo? Looking to upgrade from a wheel stand but I am 6’ 8” and heavy as well. Don’t want to order a cockpit only to find out it doesn’t work for me. Thanks!

[victoryroadracer]

This looks really compact compared to the P1-X. I’m roughly 6’2”. Will this be enough leg space for those that are 6’0” and over?

[danut]

The plastic angle covers on my Evo are popping out at the lightest breeze, other than that, it's brilliant.

[jamestala]

I’m curious but would the sim lab bucket seats fit a gt omega prime or prime lite rig?
