Drag Racing Tech - Anyone brace stock driver seat so it won't break on a hard launch?

Wondered if this is an issue with sub 1.6 short times. Any way to easily brace the driver seat for hard launches so it doesn't break (I can feel the seat press back a couple of inches when I launch now). Any alternative to putting in a race seat?

Thanks

Never been an issue for me.. I've been hitting 1.5's on nearly every run for a couple years now..

thanks for the input...but my situation is a little different (I am 6'3" and 417 lbs)! I hope nothing happens, and nothing has in other cars I have, its just that this seat feels flimsy!

The Seat Is Ment To Stay In Place During A Collsion So Id Hope It Could Surive A Launch ....

Not trying to be an ass or anything, but I think you should lose some weight for your own health and well being......as a by-product of that, you're gonna go faster! But for now, the stock seat should hold.
