Over my next few HPDEs, I'm going to sit in some different race bucket seats for feel. But I wanted to see if anyone had installed race buckets in their S197 so I can concentrate on those brand / models...things I know will fit.

Also, I'm interested if any of those with race buckets still use the 3-point belt...that way I could use the three point during daily driving and put in the harness for track days. And / or leave the three point on the passenger side as is and only install the 5/6 point on the driver side.

Thanks in advance...

 

General rule is reclining seats if you don't have a cage, and fixed-back seats if you DO have a cage/rollbar.

I'd avoid Corbeau reclining seats, had a weld break on one and it cost me a race win.

 

Thanks much for the feedback. I do have a 4 point rollbar, but with no harness bar yet. I'm thinking of putting in the removable harness bar to keep the back seat usable (daily driver, kids), so I strongly considered the Corbeau movable back seats. However, my friend has some in his vette and when doing ride alongs with him the back flexes a bit too much for my taste. This coupled with your comment makes me think I just need to look at fixed back and have the kids climb over the console to the back if they need to.

 

recaro spg here.

 

we just got a ton of used race seats in at the shop, I will get you pricing as soon as I can

 

^^^NICE!

 

Sweet. Tempting.

 

That would be great, thanks.

 

Cobra evolutions $400-$500 depending on the condition of which one you choose. They are the same model.

 

They got any time left on their FIA certs?
