Re: Racing seats vs Stock seats
The only place where an aftermarket seat can be a negative is with a vertical crash. I fractured L1 in my back on a huge wheelstand when I had to abort or crash the car over the wall. my spine compressed when the K frame hit the racing surface and bottomed out the car. This is a rare circumstance, but it happened to me. I have a thick foam pad on the lower pan of the seat now. Hopefully I never have to use it .
They save weight and are safer everywhere else, and feel good to sit in. Lost 60 pounds in the middle of the Firebird when I converted over
