Default Re: Who makes a "comfortable" race seat

Jim,

Here are a few pictures of what I put in my stocker. I used the Kirkey 41 Series Pro Street Drag seat with the vinyl cover. The are very comfortable for me, but they are firm. It was fairly easy to install and I was able to position the seat exactly were I wanted it, something I could not do with the stock seat. As far as safety is concerned, there is no comparison to my stock seat. The Kirkey is far superior in everyway.

As you can see I have only one race seat, weight was never a consideration for my car, I can move weight around easily even with stock seat. The weight difference was 15 pounds, that includes the brackets and hardware for the new seat.
