BACC or Nor Cal --- ERA or SPF Set Up For 6'-4" Tall Driver ?
Anyone in the Bay Area or Nor Cal area have an ERA or SPF setup for a tall driver? Looking for a test 'sit' in a car with the tweaks for a 6'-4" tall driver ...
From what I have read, these are the common 'adjustments' in a Cobra for tall drivers ...
- Seat all the way back, with no seat rails and bolted to floor
- Seat bottom tipped slightly up in front
- Dropped foot box
- Minimal seat foam
- Any other tricks?
Through the graciousness of a some of BACC members, I have had the chance to sit in a number of Cobras. So far, though ... they have all been really tight. Knees jammed into the dash and almost peering over the windshield. I am not looking for luxurious comfort in a Cobra ... just something that is not too tight. Interesting enough, I fit better in my 88" wheelbase TR6, than I do in any of the Cobras that I have sat in so far, go figure.
At this point, I am leaning towards ERA or Superformance for a 90" wheelbase car. The other option would be something along the lines of a Backdraft at 92" or Everett-Morrison at 93" wheelbase. I have also heard that Coupes are good for tall drivers, but I prefer an open car.
Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
