Tall guy looking at SPFs - I've got questions

[Night Enforcer]

My son is 6'2'' 275 lbs. and he did as others have done and removed the seat rails and bolted the seat directly to the floor as far back as possible. He and I both use leather steering wheels which gains clearance between your knees/thighs and the wheel. It also makes getting into and out of the car much easier. I am 6' and 240 lbs and don't have a problem with the standard seat set up in my car. I don't think this was mentioned before, but when you try out the differnt cars, wear a pair of Piloti's or other racing shoe. My son and I both have wide feet and almost always drive our cars with racing shoes on. Even tennis shoes can be a problem and give you the feeling that you are not fitting or sitting in the car correctly.

Agree with you about the right shoes. I wear a 13M and I can't drive my car with regular cross trainer tennis shoes. Plenty of room wearing racing shoes or narrow flat shoes like Puma's.
