Fanatec Revolutionizes the Sim Racing Experience with the ClubSport GT Cockpit

Fanatec, a subsidiary of Corsair, is thrilled to unveil the ClubSport GT Cockpit, an innovative and robust racing chassis that delivers a highly immersive sim racing experience. Built for both seasoned professionals and enthusiastic newcomers, the ClubSport GT Cockpit offers incredible adjustability, stability, and comfort, helping sim racers to perform at their very best.

The Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit features a highly adjustable seating setup, easily transitioning from an upright road-car to a semi-reclined Formula-style seating position, accommodating a wide range of racing styles. It is also compatible with most racing seats on the market, featuring 290 mm mounting points for a versatile and convenient experience.
A standout feature of the Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit is the quick, tool-free adjustment system, enabling effortless changes to the seat, wheelbase, and pedal positions for maximum immersion. Whether fine-tuning the setup for personal comfort or adjusting for a friend, these easy modifications ensure an optimal racing experience. With a design that emphasizes convenience and immersion, the Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit is a must-have for any sim racing enthusiast.

Engineered with a sturdy, flex-resistant 50 mm diameter steel frame, the Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit minimizes flex and withstands the demands of high-torque wheelbases and heavy-duty pedal sets. Its robust construction ensures a stable and dependable racing experience that won't let you down when you're under pressure. Additionally, the cockpit features fast and straightforward self-assembly, allowing drivers to spend less time setting up and more time racing.

Drawing on Corsair's extensive expertise, the integrated cable management improves both the cockpit's aesthetics and the user experience. Strategically placed cutouts in the frame and a passively-cooled power brick holder ensure a clean and streamlined setup. The cockpit is also available bundled with the Fanatec ClubSport Seat, which is designed for maximum comfort. Its ultra-breathable fabric is up to four times more ventilated than the competition, ensuring long-lasting support and comfort even during the longest races.

The Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit's adjustable onboard monitor mount is compatible with standard 100x100mm VESA mounts, supporting screens from 32'' to 49'' ultrawide to deliver an immersive field of view. Additionally, the freestanding Fanatec Monitor accessory, available separately, supports triple-screen setups for ultimate immersion.

The cockpit is built to support most Fanatec sim racing products and is engineered for use with many third-party sim racing peripherals on the market. Furthermore, the cockpit can be customized with a comprehensive range of optional accessories, sold separately, such as the previously mentioned multi-monitor stand as well as shifter and handbrake mounts, to provide the perfect field of view and enhance your driving experience.

Whether you're looking to upgrade your current setup or just starting your sim racing journey, the Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit offers a realistic, flexible, and immersive racing experience.

I wouldn't buy a tube-frame chassis again. All those welds limit adjustments easily offered by 8020 aluminum designs. It's generic these days, but it works.
But with this tube design from Fantec, it has to invent solutions to problems it created.
For example, the wheel deck to mount the wheel base. All of the mechanisms for adjustment are at the first points of stress from FFB forces.
Some appear to be have 'quick release' handles. I wonder how that works and if it will loosen over time.

All this to gain a VESA mount, that doesn't offer tilt or height change? What's the point in offering all of these driver positions adjustments, allowing for changes in driver position (or driver swap from an adult to a kid), but the screen cannot be tilted or lowered down to the smaller driver or a dude laid out in F1 orientation?
