Default Weight of racing seat and brackets

For those who like to know the weight of items, our RS2 seat with C5/C6 mounting brackets is 24 lbs. If sliders are added the weight increases by about 5.2 lbs. The stock C5 power tracks weighs 20 lbs. Most people find the seat below comfortable for daily driving while much more supportive for track use. Our brackets have the mounting locations built in for lap and sub belts and the stock seat belt buckle.





A customer who recently installed them sent the pictures and observations below.





I've installed the seats in my C5Z and they worked great. Did a track day last Friday and I felt very secure and comfortable all day. I would have no hesitation about recommending these seats for track or street use.

FYI, the B-Krause length belts and mounting hardware worked perfectly with your brackets. No mods necessary.
