Mounting a racing seat at the wrong angle can cause knee pain and numb heels within twenty minutes on track. Advanced SimRacing manufactures three styles of steel side brackets and two dual-locking seat sliders in the Advanced SimRacing collection, all backed by our 5% partner discount code SIMRACINGNATION5.
Standard vs Heavy-Duty Sliders and Side Bracket Geometry
The Advanced Seat Sliders [Standard] ($75.99 net) bolt between your aluminum seat rails and your seat brackets so you can slide forward or back with a pull bar. If you use a 150+ kg load-cell brake and hate even a tiny click in the slider teeth, upgrade to the Advanced Seat Sliders [Heavy Duty] ($113.99 net).
On top of the sliders, Advanced Side Brackets [Standard] ($66.49 net) hold standard fiberglass GT shells. If you want extra height slots to tilt your bucket seat further back for thigh support, pick the taller Advanced Side Brackets [Maximum Range] ($94.99 net) or the low-slung Advanced Side Brackets [Formula] ($94.99 net).
