They look pretty uncomfortable to me. I would rather have a nice Recaro seat or Corbeau, but that's just me.

if you have a car you straight up take to the track, it gets the job done. I dont plan to be sitting in it for days at a time, a couple minutes in line, and then a few seconds down the track at a time. if you are talking about just getting a racing seat for daily use/upgrade, you are looking at the wrong kind of seats.

I agree! If you're going to be in the seat anymore than an hour stay away from the Kirkey seats. They're great race seats though! You may want to look at the Corbeau FX1 Pros. Great racing seat and you can sit in it for an extended period of time although that doesn't mean you can do the Power Tour in them but for everyday driving they should be OK!

if it's a street/ stip car spend your dough on corbeaus or recaros,

if it's a devoted track car the kirkeys are great

i figured as much, my buddy said they were comfortable enough that he slept in one for a nite but then again im sure he was wasted.
i dont even have close to enough money for recaros, sparcos, or corbeaus so i guess il have to save up for some jegs brand or sumthing.

Save your money and buy the Corbeaus! Remember, it's like buying a helmet! How much is your head worth?

Call Rodger at Ironworks Speed & Kustom (661)399-8999. He's a Corbeau dealer. Tell him John sent you and he'll hook you up on the price!
