Racing Seats & Car Seat Accessories
When is a racing seat needed?
A racing seat paired with adequate restraint systems ensures the driver remains in place and protects the driver in a collision, which is why track rules require specific standards for racing seat design, height, and certifications. Additionally, a racing seat improves driver control for better safety and shorter lap times.
How do you choose a race seat size?
Your racing seat should fit both the car and the driver. Measure the width of the vehicle and narrow down your options by choosing a seat that has the appropriate dimensions and is also appropriately sized for the driver.
While most standard racing seats are designed to fit multiple sizes and body styles, you can ensure an accurate fit by measuring the width of the hips, the width of the chest (below the armpits), chest depth, and shoulder height and width. Compare these measurements with the manufacturer's seat dimensions chart.
