    Race seats are designed to hold you in place in high g corners, and keep you safe in a crash. Don’t know why anyone uses one at their computer.

      it’s like how all shoes had to have huge heels, after stirrups for horses became a thing and thus riders started wearing riding shoes.
      The heels aren’t useful for walking, they literally only exist to hook onto stirrups, it’s insane.

      i wish i’d pulled the seats out of my old talon when it got totaled. those seats fit me like a glove. I’d’ve build my own office chair out of them if i could.
