Suggestions racing seats?

So what do you have, and do you like them?

I want something that has the slots for the 5 point and will fit my BFA!

I'm leaning towards the Corbeau Forza (WIDE)

if not the Kirkey Pro street ( 18" )

Anyone have these or maybe suggest something else to consider.

I don't have much info for you on a fixed back seat but regardless, def get the wide version. Only issue I can see with the Forza's are if you have a 6 point bar or greater in the car, those top bolsters will likely hit big time. If you don't have a bar, then they should be fine. I bought the LG1's in wide and they fit great. You can check my thread in the appearance section to show you how they just touch the rollbar on the sides in the full-back position.

Yea, I don't fit well in this seat. If you weigh less than a 100lbs soaking wet, its for you, otherwise, nope

I seem to fit OK in the Jeg's sport seats/Procars and I am a larger guy.

Yes, I have a bar and run a 5 point harness.

Which seats are these? I have a pair of Mad Racing Concepts in my car, they are a little on the narrow side but fit me perfectly @ 5'10" 170lbs. My biggest issue is the seat rail issue. They always come with universal sliders that are worthless on our oddly shaped floor boards.

Until I find a stock camaro manual rail I will leave the ds alone
