Are we about the same height?
I think so. I'm ~ 5'8". can you try it out with your helmet on for me and tell me if u think it will get me low enough? I appreciate it.

Worked just barely with my helmet on btw, in my normal driving position.

sup guys, I'm not sure how low the BYS rail is, correct me if I'm wrong but judging from this pic taken from this thread:
https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...ic=431345&st=0


based on that picture, it lowers the seat probably an inch or so, you will most likely not pass the broomstick test. I am 5'11" with a long torso and my bucket seat literally had to sit on the floor for me to clear by half an inch with helmet on.

I have F1spec type5 (bride replica), which is a side mount, for those with ANY side mount seats, I highly recommend getting the F1spec low L brackets with BC or BC style rails, you will def clear the test.

So it is confirmed that NCRC enforces the broomstick test?

what is the consensus on the most cost effective workaround for an occasional track car?

I want to try to go to laguna seca sept 6.
