Default Brides, Recaro, Sparco

I am about to pull the trigger on some Pole Positions but found a really good deal on some Bride Vios.

I was out at Forged Performance, and John was a great help in giving me options. John, if you are reading this, what Bride did you guys have me sit in and I could not fit my big butt in? The dimensions I have found on it shows that it is probably wide enough but I think they are measuring from the outside. Anyone have one in Portland, I could test fit?

Thanks!

Personally, I would never even consider Hiep's seat in my car. I *tried* to sit in it once...

I'm 6'2 and about 190-200.

whoa impressive.

i am 5'8 145 so its manageable to daily in mine, but i cant imagine anyone being over 5'10 180 and doing the daily in the vios. anyone that already gets in and out of my car already complains big time.

john looks like hes over 5'10 but not over 180? (not that i have been checking you out ) and he manages but i think his version is different and has the shortened shoulder support to help getting in and out a little easier.
Are you saying you have the Vios III?

So, the Pole Positions I am looking at do not have the FIA sticker on them, would I need this in order to use it in a certain type of sanctioned race? Maybe down the road I will want to get more active in Auto racing but for the next year or so, it will be HPDE and AutoX.
