Default where can I buy fiberglass racing seats?

Summit racing no longer makes those seats. They only carry aluminum or carbon fiber which are WAY too expensive for me.
I tried JEGS but they only carry the expensive seats too.
The ones Summit used to have were only like $60 or something like that.
Anyone know where I can buy similiar seats for a decent price?

There may be a reason why they don't sell them anymore...like to many lawsuits? What is your safety worth?

I'm sure there're a reason but it's probably more like they can make more money just selling the aluminum and carbon fiber seats if they quit selling the fiberglass seats.
If it was a saftey issue then it would be in the NHRA rules that fiberglass seats are illegal.

Yeah, I think I did and they don't carry them either. It's almost like everyone has quit making them and switched to aluminum or carbon fiber seats.
