Lol I can imagine a seat like that either fits you and feels comfy or don't and you end up sliding around all over the place. 
Thats reminded me i'll need some harnesses too. 
They do some 3.5kgs too. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...52BSI%26otn%3D4 Edited by matty on 21st Apr, 2008. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

just be careful the top parts of the seat aren't to wide, other wise it might be a tade tight when fitting. Best 1/4 mile 13.2 seconds @116 mph

I noticed you can get alloy solid mounts for seats like cobra monaco;s of adapters so you can use side mounts. Would save a bit of weight because the sliding frames weight a bloody ton.

A friend of a friend owns Fluke Motorsport so I may end up getting one of there seats eventually but it won't be for a long time.

I've got alloy side mounts (FIA approved) for my drivers seat and steel side mounts (not FIA approved as they are slightly too thin) for my passengers seat (passengers seat will be removed whilst racing) and it's quite amazing how much lighter the alloy mounts are.
