I'm 6'3" about 200 lbs with a 34" inseam and looking for seat ideas for the teener trackmeister. The Scheel seat
that came with the car is too thick. The stock seat, minus
sliders and set on the floor with the bottom cushion out
gives me the most room. So I'm thinking Sparco Evo 2
mounted to the floor. What do you think. Any of you
tall guys have this same problem?

If it's a track only car, you might consider a Kirkey or other type of circle track aluminum seat. They are about the thinnest, lowest seats that you will find. OK for the track, but you wouldn't want to drive them on the street.
Try Jegs or Summit Racing for sizes, prices, etc.

My youngest daughter is about 6 ft 2 in tall and I used an aluminum 10 degree layback seat that is mounted on some steel flat stock directly to the floor. I used an Ultrashield Gt model, but there are others that are just as good. On the Pelican site there is an article on how I installed it.

Would a stock seat with the bottom taken out work for ya? I'm 6' with a 34" inseam and fit just fine with my Scheel (Konig), then again I'm only 165...

Thanks George and John for your suggestions, I will look
into aluminum seats.
Aaron, I'll keep the Scheel for now to use as seat for ride
alongs.
JmuRiz, only problem with stock seat is no side bolsters.
Thanks everyone for your imput, Steve

Nice seat. I'm 6' with a 32" inseam and I don't really fit in the car with the stock seat (it's OK without a helmet with the bottom cushion removed - not real comfortable.) My wife is 6'1" and fits just fine (all legs.)

I havent seen that Momo has seat brackets for the 914. How much modification for this seat to go in?

Do you have a seat bottom-to-targa measurement. So I can compare to a stock seat minus the cushion. Or has anyone tried to put a 6" guy fit with a helmet in it?

So no modification needed? These Momo's bolt right on the stock bracket?
