The Sim-Lab S1 Sport GT sim racing bucket seat trades full enclosure for speed and ease of use. It is a traditional open-top bucket with no head restraints, so getting in and out is quick, while the GRP shell still holds your hips and torso in a firm, stable position.
An open-top bucket for everyday driving
Not every session is a four-hour endurance stint. The S1 Sport is built for the rest of them — hot laps, league races, handing the rig over to a friend. Without the wraparound head restraints of a full endurance seat, you drop in and out in seconds, and the open sides make it a far friendlier seat for a rig that gets shared or used in a showroom.
Lightweight GRP shell
The shell is glass-reinforced plastic: light enough that mounting it single-handed is realistic, rigid enough that it does not creak or flex when a high-torque direct drive base is loading the chassis. That rigidity is what keeps the seat from muddying the feedback you paid for.
Breathable performance mesh
The seating surface uses a breathable performance mesh that moves air rather than trapping it. In a warm room, that is the difference between a comfortable hour in the seat and a sticky one.
Brackets included, harness ready
Bucket seat brackets are included, so the seat mounts directly into your cockpit without a separate bracket purchase. Pre-cut harness openings mean it is ready for a proper multi-point competition setup out of the box, and seat sliders are available as an optional accessory if more than one driver shares the rig.

S1 Sport or S1 Enduro?

Who this seat is for
The S1 Sport suits drivers upgrading from a foam gaming chair to a real bucket, anyone building a rig that more than one person will use, and racers who want a proper competition seat without the bulk of a full endurance shell.
