Anyone know of any group buy's going on for a set of Sparco sprint 5's?
 
Im looking into buying a set of sparco sprint 5's in the next month or so and was wondering if anyone knew or was interested and could set up a group buy for them. Or where the cheapist place to buy a set of 2 would be.

Kelly @ Speedware sells them. Not sure on pricing but you can view it on the companies webpage.

I was thinking about Sparco Sprint V or Speed. Does anyone have experience with both that could tell which would be a better fit for a smaller guy? I'm 5'10", 140lb, 30" waist.

From my understanding you should fit good, Im 5'8'' 130 lbs and should be a little loose. Hpopefully not too loose and i can sit my butt in one to make sure before i buy.

Zabac 02-27-2008 03:45 PM

geez you guys are tiny, you can just get a card board or shoe box and sit in it

i did test sit in a Forza before i bought one, thats always a must IMO

Just out of curiousity, how much did they charge your for the forzas?

Zabac 02-27-2008 04:03 PM

the seat and slider was $220, but they are local to me

Loki047 02-27-2008 04:37 PM

I need a fat mans seat.

SamS 02-27-2008 04:40 PM

Yeah you do. You also need a turbo miata.

When's the Kawi coming out of storage?

cjernigan 02-27-2008 04:57 PM

I wear 32" waist pants and I just went and sat in the Momo Start I got from soflarick, it's a tight fit and I can't imagine anyone larger sitting in it.

My Duc will be up at school with me until the middle of May, but after that I think I'll have an internship back home so we could do something.

I said it was a tight fit not an uncomfortable one. I love it and can't wait to install it. I'm just saying I don't know how anyone with a 34" inseam would sit in one. I'm 6'2 185 and i like it.

Tougelabs 02-27-2008 06:42 PM

6'3 225 here i need a seat i have had brides all my life in my s14 and one set of sparcos i liked but they were a little small i think they were fighters...what can i run in these little ass go-karts ?

reddroptop 02-27-2008 07:35 PM

Who here has sat in one of these Sparco Sprint 5's.

I love the FIA certification, look, and price of these seats.

I just don't know how well I will fit.

32" waist 5'10" 180lbs. Should be at 170 by the summer.
