I'm currently looking to start a stock class Auto cross racer and being a good 6'2" I have trouble fitting into some of the smaller Hondas. Not having sore knees and legs after a day of driving is very important to me and I needed to know if I would have a cramped drive around the cones in a DC5. Thanks for any input.

 

I'm 6'0" 195 and I've driven 3-4 hrs at a time in my DC5. It's not the size that bothers me, more like the constant sitting. No matter how much room the car provides, being in there an extended amount of time, you are going to get cramps regardless. To answer your question, you shouldn't have trouble with the roominess in the DC5.

 

im 6'4 you'll b fine

 

I'm 6' 3 and i dont have any problems with long drives in my dc5. the only thing that would really bother you would be if you were sitting in the back seat. that is where it is hard to fit into for everybody.

 

Man I am only 5'5" or so and this car seems HUGE. I have a couple of friends that are over 6'0" and they ride just fine! Don't try to get in the back though or you will bang your head on the hatch!

 

im sure yao ming drives a honda

 

man im 6'3n1/2 and i have a delsol, you will have enough room in the dc5 lol

 

i think on club rsx the tallest driver is around 6'5- 6'6...you should be fine..im 5'8..if i put the seat back i cant even reach the peddles hahahahahha

Yao Ming probably removes the driver seat and sits in the back seat while driving LOL.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahaha lmao fa real though

 

Damn, you guys must ride G-Style. I'm 6.1 and my head is about a cm or two away from the ceiling. I'd go in somewhere and sit in one, seeing that you will be racing in the car you may have a problem b/c you are going to want to be sitting up straighter and a tad closer to the pedals.

 

Yeah, proper driving position is very important to me, even in daily driving, you really cant drive a car at its fullest if you're not sitting right. I will also need a little room to spare in order to fit a helmet as well. This world just isn't made for tall people.

haha you know what.....that grand daddy long legs probably does

 

I'm 6'2" and I have auto-x with an rsx. I fit fine in the car any other day. With that helmet on i had to bend my neck and my head was in the center of the car like I was in some gangsta g-ride . So pretty much with a helmet your head is gonna be where the moon roof is. I still did a decent time but it was awkward.

 

Well maybe I will have to just auto cross in my Accord, I get a couple inches of clearance. Probably not the best platform for it but I'm just looking to have some fun locally, not win any national races. I still would like to take a seat behind the wheel of an RSX sometime just to get a feel. Thanks to all for the input

That is because you are 5'5".


And if you think that is huge I need to let you drive my 4-door F-150. You would think you're in a space ship.
