Supposedly it weighs in the 20lb range.....

thoughts?

 

I like it.

Whether or not I would buy it however, would have to depend on how old it is, from the looks of it, it's pretty new. I'd scoop it up

 

That's one of the new OMP models? If so I'd get it if it fits you, looks to be a good seat. I have a OMP seat (Big) myself and I'm pleased with the quality and comfort, I have had a couple of 10-12 hour trips in it without too much suffering.

 

I've been looking for a seat to accomidate my larger size better... The Sparco Speed isn't cutting it anymore, my back kills me daily.

 

Try the Sparco EVO XL. 3 1/2" inches wider than the regular version and weights 18 lbs

 

Or the OMP Big, it's right in between EVO2 and EVO3 sizewise, I'm 260lbs and 6" and it fits me like a glove.

 

i really think those seats r ugly as hell :s

I´d be all over those recaro CF replicas being sold on the sponsors area instead.

is that considered a hans device? if you were going to get seats with head restraints, I would make sure that it is actually a hans device and not somthing that the seat manufacturer stuck on there.

IMHO, I would not but a seat with head restraint unless it was a hans.

 

HANS is a separate neck restraint that you wear under the shoulder belts that attaches to the helmet. A seat with side head support/protection is not part of the setup, but is nice to have anyways.

 

and fawking expensive too

 

But it's cheaper than brain damage...

 

u KNOW which seat u need to buy

I should fabricate a big boy racing seat.....

"The Fatboy "

 

Looks like mine - an OMP Pista. These are narrow seats, good if you have up to a 32" waist. This is a tough seat to get into and out of because of the deep bolstering. You'll need side mounts to mount it and the halo can be a bit bothersome unless you're wearing a helmet (since a helmet will obscure peripheral vision anyway). You'll also need to use a harness with this seat. A 3 pt belt won't cut it.

I wouldn't recommend this seat unless you're using it only for the track.

 

Well, see my problem isn't that I'm too wide, or too big. I'm just too Damn tall, and my shoulders are pretty wide.

So you think the Sparco EVO XL would do well with my body type

How tall?

I'm 6'3" to 6'4", 200 lbs average build. 34" waist. It fits great in the hips, and shoulders. Really snug but not "pinching". But-- the shoulder harness holes are a bit too low. I took the bottom pad out, and that helped. With my Hans on, it's still a little too low for my comfort.

Keep that in mind.
