Hi

Driven a T with lids (?) off. No issue with head clearance.

I would like a T for funky wind in the hair, but more Cs to choose from.

I will have to drive to Straight 6 to drive the one they have. But, thoughts, can 6 foot 3 fit the C?

Thx


Nic

what about a convertible T350; or as we call them; a Tamora!

Hi again Nic,

Im 6ft 2.5 and I can fit comfortably in both T350C and the Tamora. Never tried a T350T to compare. The C certainly felt snug but not unpleasant.

I had to slouch a little in the T350C but nothing uncomfortable. In the Tam even when sat bolt upright I only just touch the rear roof hoop.

If anything I find the peddle box placement to be the most important part of getting comfortable. Too close to the seat and I end up with my knees around my ears.

The part of the seat that your backside sits on,the cushion,is removable.Its only held in with Velcro.
It's designed to be removable so you really sit in the seat for the track.,and gives helmet space.
Remove it and see how low you sit.Always possibly to have a shallower cushion for tall people.
Assuming the car has T350/Sagaris style seats and not Tuscan ones?
Cs are a lot cheaper,due to their lack of rarity, especially 2005/6 cars.biggrin

Yes 6ft 3 and no issues with Tam roof off, roof on you need to be able to get your head under the side. Technique helps here but once I’m in it’s fine. Also pedal box can be move by unbolting from under the car and moving it into one of 3 positions. The furthest away makes the Tam easy to drive even with size 12.5 shoes.

6”2 and drive a t350t. No issues driving it, need to be a smidge agile getting in and out. I drive without the seat cushion in.
