My fat mate can get in the mock chassis we have, reckons when he goes for his knighthood he is going to be sir cumference.
I dont think there are issues with fitting in the cockpit. its just a matter if friggin with seat combinations. Someone pointed out that if you dont go for a bucket seat and use a flat squab you can then pad the gear tunnel + side panel, thats a few valuable inches.

I can fit in a Roadster with car seats and a normal steering wheel fairly comfortably. I've sat in a couple of others with FG seats and have had no issues whatsoever. Whilst I'm not a huge bloke I can't be called small either - I'm 6ft and a little over 15 stone.

My biggest concern in terms of fitting was the pedal box because I have size 13 feet. But that seems OK too when I tried it out.
