How much time do you spend in the car on a daily basis? How long is you commute?

The daily aspect is actually minimal. Its only a 20min commute to my office and I occasionally drive 30-45min around town. Its the too and from road trips that are the real issue.

So I wanted to give a quick follow up to this thread.

I ended up buying a pair of GT2 Sport Buckets from a fellow 6 Speeder about a month ago. However I also decided to do a full upgrade on my car at the same time so I didint really get a chance to try them out with long distance, only a track say.

Well I picked up my car from Champion Motorsports in Ft Lauderdale yesterday and raced on Palm Beach Raceway. Seats fit like a glove and worked extremely well with my Schroth 6pt Harness.

The day after the race, I drove the 8 hour drive to Atlanta to race Road Atlanta this weekend and I was EXTREMELY comfortable during the drive. Didn't have to get out to stretch nor had any back issues. As I mentioned earlier, I am 6'2 215lbs. Conversely, my girlfriend who also rode with me said her back was hurting as the seats did not recline as much as she is used too. She is 5'3 110lbs.

Just wanted to give my feedback on the seats. For me, they were worth every penny and I am quite satisfied with my purchase!
