The Sim-Lab P1X has been considered the best of the best by many Sim Racers when it comes to aluminium cockpits for a number of years.
Our main Sim-Rig at Boosted Media has had the original P1X as it’s foundation for over 4 years and hasn’t skipped a beat through the evolution of our rig. So expectations for the the P1X Pro were very high.
Sim-Lab have brought some new ideas to the table which aim to keep the price down, weight down, visual appeal up, as well as maintaining the essentials we had with the P1X such as rigidity, adjustability and adaptability.
We took a close look at the P1X Pro Cockpit with Speed 1 Bucket Seat and Integrated Vario Monitor Mount to find out exactly what you can expect from this product, if it lives up to the name, and if it could be your forever cockpit.
Pros
- Easy to build
- Sleek and minimal design
- Plenty of OEM and aftermarket accessories available
- Very rigid
- Plenty of adjustability
- The last Sim Racing Cockpit you’ll ever need to buy
Cons
- Wheel Deck Uprights are on a 20 degree slant (some people may prefer this)
- Powder coating is easily marked
- Our sample had minor paint defects
