Racing Seat Fitment help: Bride Zeta XL vs Recaro SPG XL

OptionZero · 12-03-2019, 11:13 AM

A very promising new contender has arisen:

Recardo - PODIUM

Brochure: https://www.recaro-automotive.com/fi...-podium-en.pdf

It looks absolutely wicked. M and L sizes available but no exact dimensions listed.

The way the harness holes are positioned on the spine is very encouraging since it looks like the top most set is higher relative to the shoulders than the SPG XL

So if this is just the same size the SPG XL with higher holes . . . its perfect

So, I just got a Sparco QRT-R and installed it on my BuddyClub rails. If you don't mind the seat leaning back, they can provide equal head clearance with the stock seats. I like my seats leaning back, so it's perfect for me. I autocrossed on them today for the first time and am very happy with the combination. I'm 5'11", 195 with a 34 in. waist. If you like to sit upright and close to the wheel, this may not be the correct combination for you, unless you're short.
