That said some people do like to ditch the sliders for a more secure install in the event of a crash at the track (sliders are prone to fail in those situations) and that makes sense to me. The holes that are in the seats now you would have to use as they are because there is simply no good way to make another attachment point on the seat itself. But ya, you could totally modify the base or mount the side brackets directly to the floor, there is enough clearance for that.
Well both are 6lbs so I save half haha. Yeah that does make sense. I'm going all FIA so I have to be secure and safe. And I'm looking at corbaeu sport forza FIA seats for $314 retail. The base has holes in it so fingers crossed they will fit the seat holes on the bottom. If they don't then I need to decide if I want to weld side rails to the floor or buy both base and sides and have to spend more and more weight. Or I could drill out a hole in the base to match the seat holes... hmmm
