Trak Racer TR80S Racing Simulator
80 × 40 mm aluminum profile cockpit with a hybrid Formula/GT pedal plate
Description
The Trak Racer TR80S (V6) is an aluminum profile sim racing cockpit built from thicker-walled 80 × 40 mm extrusion, anodized black. It replaces the older TR80 MK5 and is Trak Racer's value entry to profile rigs.
Frame and mounts. Side-mounted wheel uprights with heavy-duty 80 × 40 brackets carry the wheel plate, and Trak Racer recommends wheel bases up to 16 Nm. The footprint is 660 × 1200 mm and the frame weighs 32 kg.
Hybrid pedal plate. The pedal plate adjusts in height and angle to move between Formula-style (feet up) and GT-style (feet down) positions with ratchet levers. It is pre-drilled for major wheel, pedal and shifter brands; the shifter mount and seat slider are optional.
Upgrades. More than 30 add-ons are available, including monitor stands, keyboard, speaker and bass shaker mounts. For stronger bases, the TR120S V2 is rated for 30 Nm+.
Features & highlights
Driving style
The TR80S is a first aluminum profile rig for drivers with entry and mid-range direct drive bases. TweakTown puts the sweet spot at about 9–12 Nm, which covers bases like the MOZA R9 V3, Fanatec CSL DD and Simagic Alpha Mini in GT, touring and Formula cars across iRacing, ACC, F1 and Assetto Corsa. The hybrid pedal plate lets one rig cover both Formula and GT positions.
Best for budget-minded drivers who want profile-rig modularity and a compact footprint; less suited for 15 Nm+ direct drive bases, which push toward the TR120S V2 or TR160.
Build quality
The TR80S uses 80 × 40 mm thicker-walled anodized aluminum extrusion with heavy-duty brackets and side-mounted wheel uprights. TweakTown noted slight flex at higher loads but no real concern up to about 12 Nm, and found the painted aluminum scratches easily.
Software
The TR80S is a mechanical cockpit and needs no software or drivers. It works with any platform the mounted wheel base, pedals and shifters support, including PC, PlayStation and Xbox.
Trak Racer's online compatibility lists help confirm hole patterns for specific wheel bases and pedals before buying.
