The Beast - GTTrack Edition
Force2Motion 8DOF - Motion-Simulator - Built-to-Order "The Beast" - GTTrack Edition
The ultimate combination of Seat-Mover and Full-Motion-Cockpit with Traction Loss
The Next Level Racing GTTrack cockpit is the first cockpit with which we developed our "Beast". And there is a good reason for that. It is stable and yet relatively light, can be adjusted in many ways and there are now three versions with which we can configure our Beast:
But nothing moves yet. So, in the first stage of expansion, install a Next Level Racing Motion Platform V3 and from now on the seat will move analogue to the movements of your car or plane in your favourite simulation. Then add the Buttkicker Gamer 2 and the immersion effect is increased by the realistic feeling of engine vibrations and road effects.
In the next stage of expansion, screw the GTTrack cockpit onto the Next Level Racing Traction Plus System using the adapters supplied with the Traction Plus and the over- and under-steering effects are transferred to the cockpit independently of each other. In flight simulations, this simulates the rudder.
If you still don't have enough, you can put our Force2Motion adapter system "Beast" between the GTTrack cockpit and the Traction Plus and get a full-motion cockpit which can be lifted independently at all four corners with the ProSimu actuators. This is an excellent way to feel the textures of the road surfaces, simulate bumps or driving over curbs. And since the system then comes very close to the driving feel of a real vehicle, it is correspondingly difficult to tame - hence the name "The Beast". However, once you have tamed the beast, you will be rewarded with very realistic effects that come astonishingly close to a real racing car (in the words of a real racing driver from the GT3 and rally-cross scene: 90-95% real).
To get the seating position a little lower, we can now omit the rear side members and the rear cross member of the GTTrack cockpit, thus saving valuable kilograms of weight. Because weight is an important issue, just like in a real racing car. Every gram counts and especially if the driver has a few kilos too many on the ribs, we have to be careful not to exceed the total weight of formally 235 kg payload of the Traction Plus System.
For those who want to do without the Traction Plus System, the "Beast Light" is an attractive new variant: here, the clear effect of over- and understeer is eliminated and the lower (static) beam of the F2M adapter system can be omitted. This gives us a lot of room for improvement in terms of payload and we get a pretty cool combination of seat and cockpit mover that provides ultra-precise feedback for the driver. With the Beast Light we can even use the 150mm or 200mm actuators from ProSimu instead of the 100mm actuators, which will be very interesting for flight simulators.
At the end it is purely a question of price whether you start small and expand the system bit by bit or start directly with a larger version or even the complete "Beast". Either way: compatibility is assured and you never invest in a "dead end".
If you are not yet convinced, you should definitely make an appointment for a test drive in our showroom and try out the different systems yourself.
And of course, there are alternatives to the GTTrack-based Beast based on the NLR FGT ELITE or the Fanatec cockpits. And we also have solutions for the RSeat cockpits RS1, S1 and N1 as well as Trakracer TR80/160 and self-made cockpits.

- NLR GTTrack Cockpit complete with NLR GTTrack Seat, Original Seatframe with seat adjustment and seat belts.
- NLR GTTrack Frame-Only without seat but with seat adjustment rails and universally usable seat mount.
- NLR Wheelstand DD without seat, but expandable with the GTTrack Seat-Addon or the F2M-Seatframe and seat mounts.
