I had to cut my last track day short because my seat back wouldn't stay latched. I have a S550 with the heated/cooled seats. The right side gear would over-run a few teeth whenever I would make a 1G+ left tun. It turned into a safety concern pretty quickly.
I would love to find a nice set of Recaro seats with high bolster sides for more support, but I sat in a new Mustang with Recaro seats and I don't fit in it with my helmet on. I am too tall.
Is there such a thing as a Recaro (or other reputable brand) race style seat that is lower or at least as low as the stock luxury seat? Am I going to be stuck with a factory luxury seats? If so, should I put an adjustable harness bar in the car to help support the back?
I am also considering a full-blown fixed back race seat... but I don't know if I will be up against the same type of fitment issue.
Any feedback and/or recommendations are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Spaz
