Do you spend too much time on the street with it to justify uber-light, exotic material racing shell seats??

i got some video i should upload from when i got my racing license back in the day
Although i got a bit more upclose and personal treatment since i was there thanks to baer brakes and got to hang out with bob bondurant... what a cool guy!
He scared the hell out of me while doing hotlaps in a suped up mazda miata! He wasnt even looking at the track he was looking at me talking about stuff the whole time while i was sinking down wishing there was a roll bar in teh car... that was some good times!

Good old bob! He will talk about his old stories all day if you start asking him about stuff.. and i could listen to them all day! I love the one where he tells about when he was in italy racing for ferrari and his strap on his goggles broke and he had to hold his goggles when he slowed down and then stuck his head out just enough for the air pressure to keep them on .. amogst other things.. good old school racer!
