Is it just me, or do others find the seats in the Camaro horrible and painfull?
I recognize that the seats don't hold an occupant well when said occupant is engaged in vigorous driving, but heck I got in my car Sat and took a drive outbound for 1.5 hours and inbound for the same length of time. When I got in the car first thing my lower back was a bit sore. When I got home my back was a whole bunch sore. Today it is awful sore. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Are there others who have the same experience? Is there something about the design of these seats that causes back pain? Heck, I can drive my wife's Honda for hours without trouble, why? Do I need a new seat? What should I get? Or is it just my 47 year old back going to rat sh*&. |

I also had helmet clearance problems when installing my Corbeau Forza. To fix it, I cut off the metal raised section that the 2 studs are welded to, both front and back of the seat (total 4 studs). I then had my cage fabricator weld these studs to some plates he made that went straight to the floor with supports welded underneath the floor. That gained me almost an inch of head room I would say. My seat sits so low now I can't adjust my side mirrors to see correctly behind me, but some $2 Murrays stick on mirrors helped out with that. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) As it is my helmet will hit my rollcage bar that goes over my door if I'm not sitting right. I just adjust myself in the seat and go out on track. Also got the thinner, higher density padding to help out with both clearance and safety if my head does try to hit that bar in a wreck.
