How are your seats so low? My helmet rubs on the ceiling and I'm 5' 10".

Rob,
You can change the side mounts to go lower with this kit, http://www.bkauto.com/porsche/r9079.php I had a same problem with you until I got those. You can try sitting in mine next time we meet. Or, take out the cushion on the seats for lower seating position.

I'm not sure, I'm only 5' - 6 1/2". All my stuff is factory so maybe I just have a shorter torso and longer legs. I can't really see over the dash so I just drive by sense of smell, when the scent of burning rubber comes in the passenger window I turn right. When it comes in both windows I tap the brakes. I have also heard that some taller folks take the bottom pads out of the seats and sit on the shell. (gives a more racecar feel too)

Default Went with the CCW T-10

And they were beautifully made and the entire set was only $2600 which is a lot less than some of the other "top brands"....strong, light, and great looking.

Judge for yourself....here's some pictures.

T10s are street wheels. I wouldn't use them for track. C10 is under development. I waited for 2 months and gave up. went with C14s instead. they are a couple hundred dollars cheaper a set compared to project price for the C10.
