I'm just about 6 feet tall and I raced my prelude for the first time this past weekend. Now I barely fit in the lude as it is, my hair brushes the top constantly. The seat is slid back as far as it goes, and I have the seat back up full minus one notch, anything lower and I can't reach the wheel, anything closer and my footwork is quite hampered...
Anyhow... I put my helmet on and get in.. WHOOPS.. no way, I can't fit. So I have to drop the seat back down about 4 notches... of course, now I'm totally uncomfortable, look like a punk and run a pretty dismal time.
Anyhow when I get out I mention this to soem guys from our club and the guys suggest I open the sunroof... so I do.. but I have to lean to the right about 4-6 inches and it only sorta helps. Although I can now get the seat-back up to where I want it, I have to move it forward a bit to get my helmet to fit in the area of the narrow prelude sunroof.
Anyhow.. this is yet another unacceptable problem with trying to AutoX this car.
I'm looking at aftermarket seats now.... what are your guys's experience with aftermarket seats, headroom and racing?
Ultimately I'm looking for something to lower my seating position, everything else (fabric, hold, color) is secondary.
What kind of costs am I looking at?
