Looking at Corbeau Forza, Forza Sport and F1X Pro. They all look pretty similar to me and without being able to sit in all o them the decision is kind of tricky. I've heard overall good things about the Forza.
Anyone running either of these? They are going in a 95 Camaro for Autocross but is also a DD that sees the occasional 2hr one way trip to the in-laws house in Columbus OH from Cincy Oh. Everything else is around town driving. Will be making my own seat brackets. Thanks guys! |

IMO, the tube frame seats are akin to lawn chairs. They will not pass NASA race tech. I recommend a fiberglass shell seat.

Not even the FIA approved/homologated one piece/non-reclining versions?? This post has been edited by dailydriver: May 25 2014, 11:32 PM |
