Default Re: A case for aftermarket seats in stock

I would go for after market seats for safety. Hell half the cars don't have the right seat in them anyway. Year's a go I was the local tech inspector at our track. One of the car's that used to show up was built buy the rule book. Bolted down seat tracks,back of the seat bolted to the roll bar it was a nice car. Well one another car got out of shape one day and clipped the this car. Well it barrel rolled right down the center of the track. When I got to the car it was on laying on the passenger side door. I climbed up and opened the driver side door and to my surprise no driver. I 'm thinking wtf and then I hear some one telling me I'm in the back. Well the seat had come apart while it was rolling down the track. The funny thing was the 5-way was still latched together. The bad thing was it hurt the guy pretty bad. Well the next year the guy had a new car with aftermarket seats in it. I asked him why he didn't put them in his old car, his reply was I wanted it to look stock.
