    What in your opinion would be close to the largest waist size to be comfortable in a Marrad seat?

    It's hard to say but I'm fat and fit(barely). I'm 5'10, 300lbs(always weighed more than what i look, if that makes sense) , 40/42 waist, broad shoulders and chest(52") and large thighs so like a line backer.

    I would recommend the low bolster to most everyone unless it's a dedicated track, that version was closer to the LX1 I previously had and getting out/in was much easier than the current LX2 I have. That won't much matter when I put in the door bars as far as getting in/out but still bothersome because of my big legs. Still like it much more than the NB1 seat it replaced.

    I'm 5'8", 270lbs with a 40" waist. Built like you but 2" shorter LOL. My car is a weekend warrior and track/autocross car, so I'm looking to upgrade to betters seats and harnesses soon, just having trouble finding something that will fit a 40" waist and fit in a Miata at the same time. At the moment I'm leaning towards a 17" Ultrashield aluminum seat from TDR.
