[QUOTE="BustedKnucklefilms, post: 717493, member: 875"] The lack of information in this thread and misinformation is dangerous. Maybe the video below will help. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRhG-pqEe34#]Full Containment Racing Seats - Rock Rods Tech[/url] [b]If you are a trail rider [/b]- A good PRP or Corbeau suspension seat is what you want. I ran PRPs in my bouncer and loved them, I also have PRPs in my endurance race RZR. [b]NO CHEAP KIRKEYS![/b] - A regular cheap Kirkey seat with no padding other than what is in the seat cover has no business in an off road vehicle EVER. I had some pretty good crashes in one in my RZR buggy and I hurt for a while, now I have an ISP. I could not imagine what it would do to your back if you bottomed out the chassis landing on a rock ledge. [b] Hill Climb Racing-[/b] If you want to Hill Climb or Rock Bouncer Race where the possibility of a rollover or landing hard on the belly pan is a high probability then you want an ISP full containment seat with the different stages of foam to cushion your landings and also hold you head from flopping side to side when you barrel roll. Kirkey also makes a full containment seat with high impact padding in the bottom, they are cheaper that an ISP but also not built to custom fit you either. Here is a good example of a real life situation. I sat in line in my ISP seat in my RZR buggy waiting my turn to run the first Race to riches 3 qualifier hill yesterday after watching half of the field roll back down the hill (I drew #43). One of which went to the hospital. If I was still sitting in a kirkey seat or a suspension seat I would have opted out of that hill completely as a few of the drivers in line did. But since I had a good seat and good harnesses and a rzr buggy when I rolled to the line and Taylor Picket asked me "Matt are you sure you want to hit this hill. I replied Yes Sir! I chose my line and climbed that hill. Moral of the story, get the right seat for the job and make sure you get either pull up harnesses or ratcheting harnesses if you want to race. I run some PRP padded race harnesses that you pull up to tighten and they get good and tight to where I can't move. And as Chris said in the video if you can't swing the hammer you can't drive the nail! [b]If you need some good seats me and Jake would be glad to help ya'll find the right one for your rig.
