One of the biggest surprises for first-time cockpit buyers is how compact an 8020 aluminum profile frame actually is on the floor. Advanced SimRacing designs its GT and Formula frames to fit neatly inside a spare bedroom closet nook or office corner while qualifying for 5% off with code SIMRACINGNATION5.
Chassis Length and Width vs Monitor Wing Span
The base footprint of the ASR 3 ($522.49 net) and ASR 4 [Flat Face] ($807.49 net) measures roughly 50 inches long by 22 inches wide for the main frame rails. Adding a side shifter arm adds about 6 inches to one side, and the backrest of an Advanced Bucket Seat ($379.99 net) overhangs the rear rail by 6 to 8 inches depending on your leg length.

- For Triple 32-Inch Rooms: Budget at least 5.5 feet of wall width so you can step into your cockpit comfortably.
