Snug? Comfortable? Contorted?
Also on Locostbuilders, but not sure if everyone on here looks there so...
I'm at the point where i'm trying to work out where to mount my seat, position my pedals, gear lever and handbrake and site my steering wheel in my Haynes Roadster It's all feeling a bit 'cosy' to say the least, quite possibly uncomfortable if i'm brutally honest. Arms are outstretched further than i'd like to reach the wheel, but the pedals are the right distance away, my elbow hits my ribs when I change into 4th, and the handbrake is where I want to rest my arm on the transmission tunnel.... I seem to remember hearing that you sat diagonally twisted round in a Lancia Stratos looking sideways out of the windscreen with your head tilted to one side to get under the roof, and I'd put up with that if i had one... Is this par for the course with a 7 cockpit layout? Incidentally, i have an MT75 tunnel, there is also precious little space for my feet amongst the pedals. Do we all get issued with little 'race driver booties' when we pass IVA? Here's a pic as it is at the mo (in 4th gear)...
