adhawkins Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Welcome aboard... Oh, and you will be joiing the club I trust? Best 25 quid a year you'll spend as a Westfield owner. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itguy Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 I'm interested in the response to this one too... My wife is 5'2 and I'm 6'1 so any suggestions would be useful. Will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolt the seats to the floor and tell the wife to get her own car PS, it worked for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 I'm 5'11", Blatgirl is several inches shorter. The narrow sprint car has a Westfield race seat on runners, the wide car has a Westfield "sports" type seat on runners. There's plenty of adjustment. Lowest seats that fit on runners are sold by Plays Kool. Talk to Paul... If lowness is to enable you to both be under the roll bar, I fear that at 6'1" the only answer is to add a hoop to the roll bar. If lowness is a centre of gravity thing for handling, trust me just sitting an extra inch or so lower won't make any noticable difference to the handling, except on paper...
