Timbo,

So, I haven't purchased the belt yet because here's another observation I just made...

The recaros are great seats overall. However, the headrest tilts forward. In street driving, this isn't a problem. On the track, I normally recline the seat a little more so that my helmet isn't constantly bumping into the headrest. That said, I just sat in my car, helmet on and pressed my shoulders against the seat trying to recreate what would occur with the harness. I gotta say, I didn't love how my helmet made contact with the headrest forcing my head to tilt forward.

Do you have that experience or if not, how do you counter it?
