I'd probably stick with the standard seats if it was me.

They look better for starters!

I agree.

The ones in the link look awful.

Yeah I kinda agree, just looking for cheap way to cut some weight but prob better off saving up a bit!

still if only for track car I wouldn't be too bothered.

Its the safety angle that would worry me, if its track or RS road, you dont want folding seats..........and you certainly dont want poor quality folding seats.

We've all seen those child seat tests , with the cheap / fake imported seats.....crumpling and folding forward under pressure. Fixed position seat for any form of track use.....ideally with fixed runners as well & properly mounted harness's or dont go on the track IMO.

Very good point. Suitably put off. Think I'll wait.

Thanks to to everyone for their comments

I doubt you would save any weight much fitting those.


They are normally really heavy!
