I see there's a thread on building a race seat but does anyone have any experience of purchasing one or any tips on which models are best and who stocks them?

these look pretty cool...

ultimate racing seat

looks a bit expensive though

btw, building a "rig" can be done pretty lowcost and with little effort...

Just an old carseat put on a frame with a "table" to match in height... and a plate to put the pedals on to get them at an angle.... doesn't look as cool and expensive as those readymade raceseats though

my mate from my GTR2 online racing club was recommending this to me

I am planning to get one, as by the end of summer I am starting in league that features full distance FIA GT races - 3 hours!.

My arse would just fell off if I would do that on my broke office chair on which I am doing 60 minutes races now

Haha, when I first read the topic I thought you wanted to buy a seat like the Albers way
