Who is running a Kirkey full containment seat?

#1

I’d like to talk about your likes/dislikes and fitment into an E30.

I have one in my Factory Five. If it fits there, it will fit anywhere. Note: Full contain headreasts on the left side will make it hard to get in and out the window on a door car. My car is a roadster, I just climb out the top. Otherwise, the seat is pretty good for the money.

I have one in mine. You saw it at VIR. Granted I am tall and the seat is back quite a bit making the headrest a little more out of the way of the window. I love it though, it’s the most comfortable seat I’ve been in (for a guy my size 6’6 225 lbs).

Anyone have a 71 series? I upgraded to a 6pt harness so I should probably get a seat made for a 6pt harness. I sat in a the 16 inch circle track version without my helmet and hnr a few weeks ago on a warehouse floor. I’m thinking that’s what I want and it’s the cheapest halo seat. Opinions wanted.

Arise, dead thread! Can’t speak to the Krikey but i have an ultra shield and it’s great. Full containment is the ONLY way to go. All seats are butt killers but i found this thing, cut it to fit the seat, and it has litterally saved my ass:

Mine is a Kirkey 66. Not made anymore but there’s some similarities with the 71. Story is here. http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?1626317-Just-bought-a-Kirkey-containment-seat&highlight=kirkey
