Sparco pro 2000, Sparco frame and Sparco runners. (this seat can be base mounted onto runners) Allowing for it to sit lower than a side mounted.

Recaro Profi or pole position. Recaro frame recaro runners.

Until I can make arrangements for some VAC mounts.

Also another option is the Corbeau Pro series, But I have no idea on how these would mounts on runners, without modification.

Is/has anyone running/run any of the above? Are the recaro's much better than the Sparco's?

I know a seat can be a personal thing, subjective. But any feedback at all would be greatly appreciated.

Regards.

recaro profi spg is an excellent seat....don't believe shimmy saying he doesn't need the XL!!
I have only done 200 miles in my new drivers seat Recaro Spa Lt Wt and it's fantastic....debatable that it's value for money over the SPG.....
Your harness is also key to overall comfort....running a 5 or 6 point set up is a must. Having the crutch harness keeps the main harness from ending up under your arms during spirited driving.
