Probably right.
I’m thinking just a little CO2 bottle.
Ray, does your seat have a cutout for the anti-submarine (crotch) strap? I can't tell from the picture. NHRA rules can be sticky when you get into that 8.50 range, and non-OEM seats are supposed to have the crotch strap through the seat.
That looks like an FX1, which their website says does have the slot.

Good eye, that's an FX1W that I plan on using until I get the 8.50 cage done then I am going use Kirkey containment seats. I just need something to sit my fat butt on until then
Although I probably should have picked up the regular FX1 as this sucker is seriously wide, so much so that mounting it to the stock seat pan hits the door bar and keeps the seat from being centered. I am going to try one of Corbeau's brackets to see if it sits the seat a bit lower in hopes that the thigh bolster will go under the door bar.
Sorry, I said Ray and not Raymond.
Haha I answer either way, it's never bothered me one way or anotherSorry, I said Ray and not Raymond.

For sure, but as everything turbo is so new to me I'm going to wait on that. I will probably swap over at some point, but I wanted tried and true for now believe it or not
He'll even answer to Steve, when some sleep deprived fool can't remember people's Name! LOLSorry, I said Ray and not Raymond.
Spent this really nice weekend getting a containment seat installed, not near as comfy (or easy to get in) as the Corbeau, but I am just too paranoid about my big head smacking the roll bar/cage if I were in an accident while not wearing a helmet. Anyway this was a measure 10 times drill once kinda deal, really happy with the height and leg room. I'll do the passenger side later, but it will not be near as hard now that I've done it once. Also need to do the harness, but that's for another day.
Ended up using a Kirkey 81 Series Containment 18.5" (fat ass) seat with their mounts which has plenty of room. I've also got the rear mount which I'll use when the cage goes in.
