How much are they brand new? If I was you I would test some buckets out before buying, because they either fit you, or they don't! I'm 38" waist and have got a large beer belly, and I can't fit into most normal buckets. Juniors are quite a slim fit from what I remember, so they may fit you fine but I wouldn't have a chance.

Cheers for that ebay link Cobbler. Thinking about glueing some of that stuff in once the carpets and seats are out to tidy it up

Dave is small enough to fit in any bucket seat, unless he's been on the pies since I last saw him!!

If my seat turns out to meet your needs Dave, you can have it at cost.

I need "extra pies" seats

. Cobra Monacos fit me perfectly (cheers Mark), and I also have a banging set of Sparco Evo XLs which might even be too big for me :O.

I've got Sparco Evo XL and it's perfectly for my svelte little buttocks. In fact, it's about the most comfy race seat I've had. I need another as a passenger seat though.

I can't remember mate, sorry. It's a nice black seat taken from an early 911.

I have Cobra Monaco S's too and I fit easily. Dave knows how small I am, so that'll help him figure it.
There's a programme on BBC on Sunday evening called Ski Sunday, watch for the bit where a guy is perched at the gate, decides to go and then as he trips the timing beam he's off down a 1 in2 ice covered slope, semi in control but just doing what he has to do. That Sir is what you will be like once you allow the trackday demon to seize control of your mind.
Why don't you bring your JRG Beast down to Oulton on 22nd for a bit of fun. Trying to get Nas to come with his M50, your M20 and whichever car I bring will be a fun contrast!

Check out novice days. They usually only cost £50 and you're allowed to do 3 before you lose novice status. You'll be well hooked by then.
