I just tried to install a Recaro SPG XL for widebodies (same dimensions as the Sparco Evo 2 I believe) and found it sits way too high to clear the rear rollbar while using the recaro side mounts and sliders. With the seat hitting the rollbar, I lose about 3" of rear travel - I absolutely need that.
I'm considering cutting off about $200 worth of seat (top portion) to allow me to get the seat low enough and far enough back to actually enjoy the seat. I currently feel I'm sitting in a kart.
Can some of you show some pictures of how your race seats fit up against the roll bar?
I've considered a floor mount application (I think Brey Krause makes an application with a special rail), but there's no room to work with the rear bulkhead in the way - do I need to drill holes in the pan to floor mount the seat?
thanks,
kj
