raceparts.cc® Matrix – Motorsport Bucket Seat for Demanding Drivers
The raceparts.cc® Matrix racing seat is designed for motorsport drivers who need a combination of comfort, secure support and a rigid seat construction in demanding driving conditions. Its dimensions are intended particularly for larger drivers, making it a suitable option to consider for rally cars, circuit racing vehicles and track cars where the correct seating position is essential.
Lightweight Fibreglass Shell with RTM Technology
The Matrix features a fibreglass shell manufactured using RTM (Resin Transfer Molding) technology. This manufacturing process allows for a precise, rigid and weight-optimised construction. According to the supplied product information, this technology can reduce weight by up to 30% compared with conventional bucket seats.
With a stated weight of approximately 10.66 kg, the Matrix combines a durable fibreglass shell with a motorsport-focused design. Its weight-optimised construction can help keep overall vehicle weight in check, an important consideration when preparing a competitive race or rally car.
Lateral Support and Integrated Head Support
A secure seating position is important when driving through fast corners, direction changes and demanding sections of a race circuit or rally stage. The non-slip upholstery material is designed to help keep the driver securely positioned while providing a connected feel with the car.
The pronounced side supports and integrated head-support features in a halo-style design provide additional lateral support. The seat should always be used as part of a properly installed and compatible safety system, with the seating position and harness configuration selected in accordance with the applicable regulations.
Adjustable Comfort and Harness Compatibility
Removable cushions for the back, seat base and leg areas allow the seating feel to be adjusted to individual preferences. This can be particularly useful during longer race sessions or rally stages, where comfort and a suitable fit are important.
Five harness openings accommodate compatible motorsport harness configurations. The side mounting points use M8 connections with a stated spacing of 290 mm. Side mounts are not included, so the correct mounting hardware must be selected for the vehicle and installation requirements.
