? I'd have to split it with Steve (toofazt) though
Question for Arizen:
How would these hold up to road racing? I see the holes in the back for my 5 point harness and all, and the option for a subbelt. My current TA seats work OK at road race but I have a rip in the side bolster and have thought of upgrading. I know they are not kirky's or anything but will they pass spec in say NASA or anything?

wow, VERY nice!! How's the seating position compared to stock? In other words, I don't want to sit any higher than I currently am with my stock seat powered ALL the way down. The lower I sit the better I like it. I am 6'5" as well, so I could see myself mounting the seat a bit further back if that's possible.....?? I don't hardly ever have anybody in the back seat.

Along the saftety lines. Do you have any provisions for the seat to be back brace mounted to a rollbar? Thus removing flex.

after installing my seats I can tell you that they go back alot farther then the stock ones, damn near to were they touch the back seats. The slider taht adjusts the seat moves alot more forward and aft then the original. Its a tad bit higher being thicker then the OEM seats. But I am sure as time passes it will not be so bad. I should have this car done and back on the road in a couple weeks. I hope.

I've seen a couple of Arizen seats and compared the leather, MRC is the same if not softer in some areas...
Here's a slightly better (older) pic (REALLY dirty):
