Description

Sparco ADV XT FIA racing seat

The ADV XT FIA racing seat is Sparco’s top-of-the-range seat and meets the FIA 8862-2009 specifications for Advanced Racing Seats. It is the lightest FIA 8862 seat Sparco has ever made: the shell weighs just 7.5 kg. That low weight comes from the production process: much less resin is used during autoclaving, leaving a higher percentage of pure carbon in the finished shell.

Sparco itself calls the material super carbon. Protection in a heavy crash is provided by the IA (Impact Absorbing) system. The seat has self-extinguishing fabric and, thanks to its compact build, is ideal for cockpits with limited interior space, such as GT cars.
