I wanted to take my '91 this year, but the past 4 months have kind of bitch-slapped the hell out of me. Been a crazy year so far.
I know it has bro. Was really looking forward to hanging with you and your wife and John and his wife, CamaroKid, dianeokie and the rest of the gang too.

Well, I got to drive Brandi last night for a little while...

As some of you know, I installed the Corbeau VX2000 racing seats...

They are being uninstalled this coming week...

They are not for me...

Time will tell what I decide to go with, but it will not be Corbeau seats....

well, lets see...

I am going to try to get my money back on them,

The driver seat ratchet mechanism doesn't work... even under moderate acceleration the seat is flopping back and then springing forward.... It's quite disconcerting...

There is no front bolster support what so ever, and with the short side bolsters, you end up having to support your entire leg weight and after as short a time as 20-30 minutes, you have to prop your hand under your right leg to prevent the cramps of supporting your leg for that long...

There is no gain in head clearance at all.... From the seat position, to the headliner is the same distance... so no help with the helmet fit...

The seat padding might as well be two or three sheets of cardboard...

Not at all what I expected from the top of the line seats from Corbeau...
