Be race-ready and in control with the OMP WRC-R racing seat
The OMP WRC-R racing seat is built for serious drivers who need real support and comfort on every lap.
Its gel-coated fibreglass shell keeps things light without compromising strength, while the high-profile side bolsters hold your legs firmly in place through tight corners.
Breathable AIRTEX fabric helps keep heat and sweat in check, and the removable cushions make cleaning and setup easy.
With support for HANS devices and multiple harness configurations, it’s ready for competitive race or rally conditions.
OMP WRC-R racing seat features
- Comfortably supports drivers with up to 36-inch waists
- High side bolsters keep your lower body locked in place
- Breathable AIRTEX® fabric helps manage heat during long sessions
- Gel-coated fibreglass shell gives you strength without extra weight
- Removable cushions make cleaning and seat adjustments quick and easy

Secure fit for racers with waists up to 36 inches
A seat that fits right makes all the difference in how you drive.
The OMP WRC-R racing seat is shaped to support waists up to 36 inches.
That snug fit helps maintain posture, especially under hard braking and fast cornering.
You won’t waste energy bracing yourself lap after lap.
Instead, the seat holds you where you need to be, so your focus stays on the race and not on adjusting your position.
Maximise lower body control with deep side bolsters
Staying planted through sharp corners is essential if you want to dominate any race.
The WRC-R racing seat delivers serious lower-body control with its high side bolsters that wrap tightly around your thighs.
No sliding. No shifting. Just a secure hold that keeps your focus where it needs to be.
When the G-forces hit, the last thing you want is to fight your seat.
It’s the kind of stability that turns an aggressive line into your fastest lap yet.
Stay cool under pressure with breathable AIRTEX fabric
Long stints behind the wheel build heat fast but staying cool keeps you sharp.
The WRC-R racing seat uses breathable AIRTEX fabric to manage sweat and airflow where it matters most.
It’s not just soft to the touch—it moves heat away from your body so you’re not soaked by the end of a session.
Whether you're pushing hard in rally stages or holding a line on track, this seat helps you stay cool when the pressure climbs.
Get a powerful seat without adding weight to your sim rig
Racing sims need gear that’s strong, supportive, and built to last.
The WRC-R racing seat features a gel-coated fibreglass shell that delivers serious durability without weighing down your rig.
It’s rigid enough to give you a solid, planted feel during intense sessions, yet light enough to move, mount, or adjust without a struggle.
That balance makes it a smart pick for sim racers who want a professional-grade seat that feels premium but doesn’t turn rig setup into a workout.
It’s built for endurance, without the bulk.
Make long sessions easier with adjustable cushion support
After hours in the seat, sweat and dust build up fast, especially in a tight rig.
The WRC-R racing seat comes with removable back, base, and leg cushions, making cleanup and seat tweaks simple.
No more awkward vacuuming between bolsters or dealing with worn padding.
Need to swap out cushions or adjust your posture for longer stints? Done in seconds.
This seat was built with real-life use in mind because comfort should be customisable, and maintenance shouldn't take more effort than your last endurance stint.
Go full immersion with the WRC-R thanks to HANS compatibility
If you’re running a full harness or planning an upgrade, compatibility matters.
The WRC-R racing seat is HANS and multi-harness ready, making it perfect for sim racers chasing maximum realism.
Whether you’re rocking a 4, 5, or 6-point setup, this seat has the slots and structure to match—no sketchy DIY mods needed.
And if you’re serious about training like the pros, HANS support gives you one less thing to compromise on.
OMP WRC-R racing seat frequently asked questions
Will the OMP WRC-R seat fit my waist size comfortably?
Yes. The WRC-R is designed for waist sizes up to 36 inches. The version offers more width for a better fit without feeling cramped.
Is the OMP WRC-R seat comfortable for long sim racing sessions?
Absolutely. The WRC-R uses high-breathability AIRTEX fabric and includes removable cushions for your back, base, and legs. That combo gives you great airflow and lets you tweak the comfort to match your posture, especially during those multi-hour sessions.
Can this seat fit into my existing sim rig without any special brackets?
It uses side-mounting points, which are compatible with most sim racing rigs. Just check that your rig supports side mounts and you’ll be good to go—no custom fabrication required.
Does the WRC-R feel overkill for sim racing if I don’t use a motion rig?
Not at all. Even without motion, the structure, snug fit, and high bolsters give you a locked-in, realistic feel that makes every session more immersive. And if you ever upgrade to motion, you're already ahead of the curve.
Can I use a harness with this seat?
This seat isn’t just for show. It’s compatible with 4, 5, and 6-point harnesses and is built to work with HANS devices too, so if you're sim racing with a full belt setup, you're covered.
How easy is it to keep the seat clean over time?
Super easy. The cushions are removable, so you can take them out for a quick wipe-down or deeper clean. No more trying to vacuum around tight corners or awkward gaps.
Does the WRC-R feel too stiff compared to more padded sim seats?
It’s firm in the right places for support, but the lightly padded AIRTEX fabric softens the feel without making it spongy. That balance keeps you comfortable while still giving you solid feedback.
Is this seat worth the price for sim racing?
If you’re serious about realism, long-session comfort, and future-proofing your setup, it’s a smart investment. You’re getting a real-deal motorsport seat with proven build quality—and it holds up over years of use.

Why Buy From Us?
If you’ve clicked on this tab, you’re obviously looking for a reason or two on why you should shop for your gaming goodies at Gamer Gear Direct, rather than those other online stores.
And we’ll (not so) humbly say there are SEVEN reasons we think you should shop with us and not hand over your hard-earned cash at one of those big box retailers like Harvey Norman or JB Hi-Fi.
REASON #1: 100% customer satisfaction GUARANTEED (if you’re not happy then neither are we – simple as that)
We’ll bend over backwards to ensure you are 100% happy and satisfied with your order and our world-class customer service. We want you to rave about your experience with us to your friends and family.
But we know that’ll only happen if we treat every customer like you’re the most important customer in the world. And you are! Without you we wouldn’t be in this business. We’ve only got to where we are today by treating our customers to a high level of service that you’ll rarely find online.
We’ll literally bend over backwards to ensure your experience with us is one you’ll shout about to your neighbour or mates at work. See, we’re not one of those big box electronics stores with a multi-million marketing budget. Those companies treat you like a number. Because they can afford to! They’ve got money coming out of their ears.
We’re different. We’re a small Aussie owned and operated business. Every single potential customer that hits our website is precious to us (that includes you). So, again, we’ll do everything we can to make sure you’re over the moon with your Gamer Gear Direct shopping experience.
Do you think Harvey Norman can promise that kind of service?
Probably not. In fact, I’d bet my house they won’t. But look, you don’t have to take my word for it. Here’s what our customers are saying about us…
Ashley Woolnough says: ‘I want to say a huge thank you to Blake and the team at Gamer Gear Direct. The service has been absolutely impeccable from the moment I first looked at items to the moment they were delivered. I bothered Blake quite a bit, but nothing was too much trouble and he went above and beyond to help me. 5-star service’.
Luke H. had this to say: ‘Amazing, Excellent Service. I'm very impressed. Well informed staff and good quality selection of Sim Racing gear. Staff even went above and beyond to answer a query regarding whether a certain set of pedals would properly mount to a specific cockpit by testing it themselves on my behalf. Delivery is ridiculous fast and free. Less than 24 hour delivery to Sydney NSW which is impressive. Definitely my go to place for all future gear'.
And this from Brendan: ‘Hands down the best online supplier in Australia atm. Customer service is above an beyond any other Australian company. Blake is always happy to try an keep the customer as happy as possible an with the best deal. I will be back...a forever shop and first stop when hunting any sim upgrade.’
That’s not an exhaustive list, either. There are plenty more happy customer stories we could share with you. But let’s move on to reason number two…
REASON #2: Five-star customer support
We’re around to support you and help you out with your questions and queries between normal business hours (Mon to Fri, 9am to 5pm).
We understand a lot of our customers (like you) are busy individuals.
Sometimes, you’ve only got time to peruse our website when you’re sitting down on the couch, chilling out after a hard day at work (maybe with a cold beverage in hand).
If you need a hand with anything, or you’ve got a question. Just tap on the live chat widget (at the bottom right of screen), email us (support@gamergeardirect.com.au) or call on (03) 9961 0240.
REASON #3: Shop with confidence thanks to our 30 day return policy
The moment you buy anything (yes, anything!) from Gamer Gear Direct you’re automatically covered by our 30-day return policy.
Buy today and if your item is not performing as it should or is faulty just return inside those first 30 days, in 'as new' condition for a refund or exchange. Please note that our return policy does not cover 'change of mind' purchases.
On top of our 30-day return policy, you’re also covered by a manufacturers’ warranty. Every product we sell is covered by a MINIMUM 6-month warranty (most are covered by a 1 year or better warranty).
When you buy from us, you’re buying top quality, brand name products (no crap ‘grey import’ products here), that’ll do exactly what they say on the box.
You'll find more details on our return policy HERE.
REASON #4: We’re competitive on our prices. If you see a Gamer Gear Direct product cheaper online, contact us and we’ll see if we can work out a deal
That doesn’t mean we’ll always beat the competition on price. Some of the big-name stores bulk up big time on products. We’re still competitive, but may not have the margin to beat them.
That aside, our prices are easily some of the cheapest you’ll find online. Plus, when you bundle several items together, we’re more than happy to chat about a bundle discount
Hit us up and we’ll chat more about price (you can open the chat widget at the bottom right of screen and start a conversation).
REASON #5: Fast shipping Australia wide
When you’re shopping online, you want your order delivered fast, right? We understand. That’s why 99% of our orders are shipped within one to two business days from the time you order.
Your order will usually arrive at your doorstep within 3 to 5 business days from the day you ordered. Doesn’t matter whether you order a 50kg racing simulator cockpit or a mousepad, we’ll make sure you get your order in super quick time.
We use the fastest couriers in the country to make sure you get your order in record time.
You can track your order the entire time, too. As soon as your order is on the way we’ll send you an email with tracking details, so you can keep your eye on where your order is the entire time.
Of course, if you have any questions or queries about your order simply email or call us and we’ll help you in any way we can.
REASON #6: Every product from Gamer Gear Direct is covered by a manufacturer warranty
Nothing worse than buying something online and it’s faulty, right?
We feel you.
That’s exactly why every item we stock is covered by a minimum 6-month warranty.
If the product you ordered from us doesn’t work right, simply return it to us and we’ll get it fixed for you under warranty.
Or if we can’t have it fixed, we’ll provide you with a replacement item as soon as possible.
REASON #7: Safe and 100% secure checkout
Our shopping cart is fitted with SSL encryption.
What the hell does that mean, you ask?
Well, that simply means all your data is 100% secure when you shop on the Gamer Gear Direct website.
We don’t save or share any of your payment details. Nor are those precious details stored anywhere on our website.
So, there you have it. There are our 7 big reasons on why you should buy all your sim goodies from us and not the competition.
Remember, we are always happy to chat with you at any time. You can open a live chat (at bottom right of screen). Email us at support@gamergeardirect.com.au or give us a call on (03) 9961 0240.
