Sport/racing seat compatible with your HANS device. The 1000 seat is similar to a 4009 but has added cushion for more comfort. It's popular with people who have back problems or difficulty sitting for long periods of time. This seat has a tough vinyl covering, instead of fire-resistant fabric, which makes it suitable for off-road or damp environments.

Protecting and supporting the human body in the right places and keeping all parts of the body in the same relationship to each other will help minimize injury and greatly increase chances of survival. The design and structure of the seat is perhaps more vital to survival than even the harness. Tests show that in a frontal impact only around 20% of body movement comes from the belt stretching. The remaining 80% is from the body not being contained within the seat. The ability of the seat to absorb crash energy lessens the amount of it that the body has to contend with. And in the case of multiple impacts the belts and seat will continue to deform, making the quality and strength of the structure around you even more vital.

Racetech seats feature extensive lateral support and reinforcement in both thigh and torso areas. Racetech designs their seats with support in critical areas to minimize fatigue and improve driver comfort and confidence. The upper torso and shoulders are protected with extended side bolsters. As a fiberglass seat designed under FIA 8855-1999 regulations a seatback brace may be required, depending on your series rules and safety standards.
