The real essential bead seat system is the optimum method to build your race car seat. All drivers can benefit from an enhanced driving experience by having direct connection with their race cars. Even if the manufacturers seat is available then, apart from poor fit, it is likely to seat the driver too high in the car compromising the optimum driver position. With taller drivers there can be insufficient clearance between helmet and roll cage which, without correction, will fail scrutineering.

The problems with the messy two-part expanding foam seat building method are well known; the rapid cure time makes any seat-fitting adjustment near impossible. The resin bead solution has a longer cure time (50 minutes +) that is not subject to the vagaries of rapidly expanding foam.  As the seat structure hardens, the resin bead seat outline can be fine-tuned to ensure a close fit to the driver.  In  terms of driver safety, the resin bead seat offers much more impact resistance than foam which is why resin bead seats are the preferred choice in most categories of racing around the world.
