Bucket Seats



Why Should You Upgrade to Bucket Seats?

Perhaps all performance cars on sale today come with racing seats straight from the factory. And they should. With the amount of raw power output cars are capable of these days; you need all the comfort and support that a racing seat offers. Can you imagine having more than 500 horsepower under your fingertips and the slightest flick of the steering wheel to the left sends you holding on for dear life as your body flies in the opposite direction? No. That is what racing seats are for. But this also begs the question: are bucket seats a worthy investment for a sports sedan, a performance-oriented coupe, or a project 1/4 mile bruiser that you are only to use on weekends?

Bucket seats are a must if you're attempting to form a quicker number of laps. You stop your bum from falling, which decreases the need to focus your body or even prevents it. Sitting with backrests that cannot be reclined will typically be balanced in the "correct" position. You will go quicker if you keep your body in place and ensure all adjustments are within grasp.

Normally, a standard car seat is larger and heavier as it has electric motors, vents, and fans. Bucket seats will improve the competitive reputation of the vehicle and enhance lap speeds on track days. They help keep the driver comfortable, apart from providing the correct look inside. To protect the driver and front passenger (on rally-cars), seats on the bucket are much more durable than standard seats.

The Sparco Competition Racing Seat is one of our best bucket seats here. The latest top of their bucket seat and the only official FIA 8862-2009 version in their Sparco collection is the Sparco ADV-SCX Ultralight seat. The new technology, which utilizes fewer resin than standard autoclaving, makes both SCX models 3kg lighter each and is highly resistant and rigid. The proportion of pure carbon in those seats is much higher. Impact-absorbing fabrics for protection and convenience are used in all contact fields, and high side bolsters to provide excellent support. The incorporated headrest eliminates lateral head movement, which lowers the possibility of trauma to the neck in an impact. The ADV-SCX Ultralight seat is ideal for racing or rally vehicles and FHR/HANS compliant and accepts all 4, 5, or 6 point harnesses.

Benefits of Bucket Seats

Here, we listed some benefits of bucket seats and why they are worthwhile and necessary for your performance car.

1. Improved Safety

Bucket seats are crucial as you chase to shave another four-tenths of a second off your lap time on Laguna Seca when exiting The Corkscrew as fast as you can. Bucket seats will prevent your whole body from sliding around uncontrollably. Because if you can't sit still, you are detrimental to your car's performance.

This can be remedied by a race seat, which is made exactly for these moments. The right seating position and support will ensure that your goal is only obliterating lap times and not worrying about how you sit. You will also grip the steering wheel-less, adding more focus to your goal. Bucket seats are designed to keep your body properly in place even during high g-force cornering. This ensures that every control is easily within reach, giving you the confidence to drive faster.

2. More Support

Bucket seats are more comfortable than your run-of-the-mill car seats. Why do you ask? The answer has the support in all the right places make it a comfortable place to be in. And you can't be four seconds a lap faster if your seat feels as stiff as a church pew. Being more structural, bucket seats are optimized for riding comfort because, unlike normal car seats, they are effective in accommodating your body shape.

Every time you are behind the wheel, buckets will give you better overall comfort than regular seats. This holds for both short and long drives. Or short and fast ones like a quarter-mile. Perhaps the only thing that goes against bucket seats is that they do not recline. But if your race car is fully roll-caged anyway, a reclining function will be rendered rather useless.
