bradgalbraith 218 Report post Posted August 17, 2018 Hi all, Looking into the Racetech RT1000 seat and from what I can see its a good option for me however at 185cm, I'm 5cm above the recommended height for the seat. Will this be an issue with a harness? Would be good to hear reviews. https://www.racetech.co.nz/shop/seats/club/RT1000-motorsport-seats Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3AN 4016 Report post Posted August 17, 2018 Won't be a problem with the harness, the belts can run up anyway but it might be an issue with helmet clearance if it's already tight. That may be mitigated by mounting the seat lower if there's space to do that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’d like to sit in one before buying though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I ended up going for the RT4009 after sitting in them both. found it to be a way better seat!!! Edited August 31, 2018 by BatMansWilly 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30 325i Rag-Top 2963 Report post Posted January 21, 2019 Check the diagrams in the MSNZ manual around shoulder straps and angles and stuff, it’s pretty well drawn out I think. Particularly if you are using a HANS device the straps should be trying to stop forward movement, not squash you into becoming a dwarf. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
