Default question on racing seats

i've always been interested in some recaro seats, but the deal is...im 6'5, 220 pounds...amazingly i fit quite well in my prelude! but would racing seats be uncomfortable for someone my size? or is it basically the same as the stock bucket seats???

they aren't comfortable to sit in for a long time.

you already have recaro seats. so think of them on crack and you got a good racing seat. now think if you want to sit in them for long periods of time

bucket seats are a pain to get in and out of, especially if you're a big guy. as far as comfort once you're in, it's not too bad.

have you ever taken a sweeper @ 100 mph? have the bruises on your legs from bracing yourself in the turn healed yet?
