You have my problem, I lean so hard it looks like I am picking something up of the passenger side floor I have been told by an instructor its a habbit you want to break.

Cheers

You might want to try something like this. It looks weird but sticks to the leather seat and most shirts like sticky flypaper. I've found it really helps control the 'lateral-G lean" lol and I see 1.25G lateral regularly! And it's way way easier than trying to fit race seats.

It's simply the soft cling shelf anti-movement foam. Just fold at the top over the seat and secure with a big baby's saftey pin.

the re-a front diffuser /canards we make is not that expensive like the original one, but fit as good as the original and is track proven just as you see in the pictures. i love it too. looks good and functional.

pm sent.

I'm not leaning. I'm looking ahead.
