RACETECH 119® Seat Series Launches Into the Race Market

11/16/2011 - SPARKS, NV- November 16, 2011- Weighing in at nearly half the weight and cost of 8862-2009 FIA seats, which were approved back in 2008, the 119 series of seats enjoy and offer all the features and shapes of the 29 series, but with huge cost and weight savings.




The new seat line was developed for competition use, and aimed at not only the pro teams, but the safety conscious race car owner that is interested in comfort and feel. Three sizes are available in either composite or Kevlar/Carbon Fiber. Included are standard, wide and wide/tall versions to accommodate the most popular body sizes found in the market. HANS compatible, with the squared shoulder support design (originally found in the famous RT4009HRV "Viper" seat), and includes cool air ducting tube for lower back cooling setup.





While FIA legal, additional features include rear fixed rigid beam (roll cage mounting design), energy absorbing foam to head restraint area, and fire retardant fabric cover. A new feature to the Racetech line is leather wear patches on the shoulder areas. Racetech will have a booth at the upcoming PRI Trade Show, in Orlando, Dec. 1-3, 2011.
