The seats were okay. The seats in Mikiec's FFR are much more comfortable and at least as supportive. (Mike has the Tri-States seats.)

The 550 is so small that you're really shoulder to shoulder -- kind of crowded. And I'm a narrow framed guy -- 6' 1", 170 lbs and only wear about a 40L coat, if that gives you any idea.

I can see how they would really do well in autocross. Small. Light. Mid-engined. I have a tape of Run'n Gun '93, and Chuck Beck easily set fasted time on the slalom course. (Of course on the drag strip, the Cobras ruled...).
