Here is what the rule book says.

The driver’s seat of any car in competition must be constructed, braced, mounted, and upholstered to provide full back and shoulder support. The driver’s seat must be supported on the bottom and back by the frame or crossmember. Except as noted in SFI Specifications, seats must be bolted with four bolts (and nuts and washers) on the bottom and one bolt in the rear into crossbar; all bolts must go into frame or crossbraces. Ball-lock pins for seat attachment prohibited in all classes.
All seats must be upholstered, or as noted under Class or SFI Requirements.
Properly braced, framed, supported, and constructed seats of aluminum, fiberglass, carbon fiber, or double-layer poly (accessory seats) permitted. Single-layer fiberglass seats must have steel tubeframework, 1/2-inch minimum O.D., for support. Aftermarket aluminum seats must have reinforced head rest. Magnesium seats prohibited.

Does the seat itself have to meet any requirements? I am looking to get a set of carbon fiber seats of drunkbass on here. But if they will not pass tech no sence in my buying them. Any help on this would be great.

 

so those kirkly aluminum seats need to be covered?
