Default What Racing Seat do you use

I am doing some research. What brand of seat do you use in your race car or autox car? If you want to post your model of seat also that would be cool.

I actually have two seats: A sparco EVO & a Momo Cup (for when I've been eating too much & don't fit in the evo)

When I'm ready for it, I'm going to probably order another Momo Cup GT seat. I've had two of them and have been very happy with the comfort/fit

This is what I put in my car, and I sell these things, so that should tell you something...

I love's my MOMO cup. My next harness, however, will have pull up belt straps, rather than pull down.

I have bought a Momo Cup and a Momo Cup GT from LTB Motorsports and I see no reason to buy anything else (and I own 2 Sparco Ultras - the Momo is a world better than the Sparco Ultra IMO and roughly the same price). So if I could vote for a Cup and Cup GT I woulda

I would be hard pressed to race in anything but a Recaro at this point. Even more so, now that I've actually crashed in one.

Recaro Pro Racer. Of course, I got mine from Griffin Motorwerke

Once you see the quality of the Recaro, you'll know why they are top $$.

i use a recaro profi spg. i like it because it is not flashy, does the job, and is semi comfy. however, it's only for small waist guys like me.

[edit] was able to get my profi spg for $600 + shipping/taxes brand new.

I used factory seat for few months, then I bought a sparco sprint, and I got the wrong size, too big for my butt.

Add Sparco Lumbar Support & Kidney pads, I just did 30 hours cross country in it and it was better than my stock RS seat.

Recaro SPG from Griffin motorwerke also.


I own another seat and when i was smaller it was ok, but the recaro is awsome, comfy, at some point i will upgrade to a pro racer.

Sparco Evo 3, great for storing the extra ***-ballast.

Recaro SPG XL, so I can eat the extra slice of pizza and drink a few more beers.

These posts should include cost too. There are a lot of good seats, but I think the Sparco Evo is the best value.
