Proper seating position for a road course -- (and the highway as far as I'm concerned...)
Put your hands at 10 and 2 on the wheel -- with your elbows slightly bent. If your shoulder blades are not planted in the seatback, you are too far away.......move the seat up and adjust the recline. Most will feel - at least initially, a bit uncomfortable...but trust me - after a while, you realize that the seat fits you like a glove and that you are more comfortable on longer rides.......
I've had people tell me that their 1997-2002 Camaros had horrible seats and that they had back aches..........once I had them sit in the car properly, no more back problems.
Most people sit back too far and have the seat reclined WAY TOO far.......
It's a car -- not a lazyboy recliner!
Further--you can maintain control of your car in this position -- reclined, you lose most control.

Ahhhhhhh, but it feels like a lazyboy.
