Default What type of race seat?

I need to get a race seat. Do I need to get a metal frame seat if I am running 9s or is a fiberglass frame race seat NHRA legal ? A metal frame would possibly be safer.

What type of seat did you buy from them and how bad are they to sit in?

Thanks for the input. I saw your friend Roy when I went back to Commerce for the NHRA race

I like my Kirkeys Dave. But as Brian said the JAZ will fit the car better.

Are you talking about these, and if so, what do you mean by "fit the car better", I mean in what way do they fit better than the Kirkeys? Thanks, Shawn

The Kirkeys are too tall. We usually cut the top off them if we install them in a f-body.
