I'm building a weekend driver/track car. I want something a little more comfortable then the stock seats has anyone tried anything else? Whats "big guy" friendly? I have a friend who has Recaros in his teener, the steering wheel and shifter trap my right knee... So Recaros are out. Any other thoughts? How about those Corbeau Sport classics?
Thanks! Mike |

Tony (TC Design) just put a Kirkey (Intermediate Road Racing) seat in my 914. It is 16” wide and is raked back something like 15%. He didn't have to cut anything, including my cage.
The seat fits perfectly, looks great and more importantly works. I tried it at an LPR autox on Sunday and it felt like everything was in slow motion. Must have been the first time I was actually planted in the car. BTW I tried to put in a Corbeau, using their hardware, and the seat, while nice, was just way high. My head hit the roof and I'm only 6-1. Kirkey has all kinds of seats. I was tempted to use the drag racing seat as about the only difference is the wings at the shoulder and it is way cheaper. |
