I'm 6' and use Momo Acropolis seats bolted to narrowed stock seat rails. Even with a helmet there's room to spare.
I drive with the seat most of the way forward for proper ergonomics with the pedal-work, and space the steering wheel close to me to make up for the rest. Cage geometry can force some contortions, so if and when you're ready to install one, spend plenty of time on what it'll do to your position in all directions and the control pattern. Good Luck! |
