New Seats for Cobra

beerkat · 03-25-2005, 10:28 AM

Well I guess that the next mod I do is going to be seats. It was point out to me at CMP that my helmet was above my roll bar. So I need to get seats that will let me sit lower in the car. I do not want to give up all the comfort of the seat.
I would like to stay with a Black seat with Red insert to keep the 10th Anniversary theme.
Any of you with different seats in your cars your thoughts would be appreciate

there was a guy today at the Hooter's meet who had racing seats (black w/red inserts), but I cannot remember what kind they were...looked sharp though...at least you know they are out there, if I can remember, i'll let you know

I assume your into open track....these I have sat in and thought they were very supportive and comfortable

Yes I want seat for open track and not drag racing. I probaly need a wide body seat. I sat in a couple at CMP but just for a short time. I hate to buy something and find that it is uncomfortalbe when your in it for very long. I do use it as a daliy driver some.

I sat in one of these for a long time and found it very comfortable. powder coated frame, folds up in seconds, and comes with a snappy insulated drink holder!

j/k

Wow...I wonder what a complete set of those run?

I could save enough money on those to do a complete rollbar setup

(I'll be my own smartass)

I have a set of those seats in green, I have logged many hours in them.

But the main promblem with them is that they do not lower the seating height so my head would still stick up above the roll bar.

SIMPSON CHILD CAR SAFETY SEAT

I thought a set of these would work, but they do not come in a wide body.

So that's what a roll bar is!

I've seen it mentioned here but I was afraid to ask

The red set that Davesnake posted could be easily shortened to keep Beerkat's head below the rollbar. AND, the table could fit over the console to provide two more drink holders. Drink away!
