Default STR - steering wheel extension?

Since aftermarket steering wheels are out (no airbag), would moving the stock steering wheel closer to the driver be legal in STR? How do the tall guys deal with this?

A product like this for the S2k would be really useful:

I switched from stock seat to a Bride Zeta III last week. The Bride sits very low which is great, but if I slide it back to where my legs have enough room for heel/toe or left foot braking, the steering wheel is too far. This is a dual purpose autocross/track car, so having the seat back and very upright is not really an option -- wouldn't pass a broomstick test, even with the Hard Dog bar installed.

Taking the seat out and readjusting it on the side mounts between autocross and track events would be a hassle too, but might be the only option.

How tall are you for you not to pass the broomstick with a HD bar and aftermarket seat?

6'1. I will pass broomstick with the seat either on the floor or 1-up from floor (Nagisa rails), but not with stock seats or with the Bride up high on the side mounts.
