The aftermarket world can be overwhelming because there isn’t a one-size-fits-all option. Selecting the right seat depends on whether you are building a dedicated circuit weapon, a weekend street machine, or an off-road buggy.

For maximum weight savings and rigid support, an aluminium race bucket seat is the go-to choice for drag and speedway racers. Options like the popular ProFlow 16-inch aluminium race seat offer incredible durability and a classic motorsport aesthetic. If you're building a hardcore track car that competes at sanctioned events, you will want to look at FIA-approved racing seats like the ProForce FIA-approved black velour seat, which meets strict global safety standards used in professional racing.

If your car does double duty on the street, comfort and accessibility are non-negotiable. Adjustable options like SAAS reclining sports seats or the SAAS drift blade seat give you lateral support during spirited weekend drives without sacrificing the daily comfort of a reclining backrest. We even cater to the dirt track crowd with specialised UTV racing seats built to handle harsh off-road use.

Protection, Comfort & Accessories

Once you’ve chosen your shell, the next step is to keep it protected and comfortable. Our inventory includes options like tweed racing seat cover to keep even the most rigid aluminium race bucket seat comfortable.

At VPW, we make it easy to source everything at once. We stock an extensive collection of racing seats and hardware, as well as seat supports covers to ensure your cabin is tailored to your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do your racing seats come with covers, or are they sold as bare shells?

It depends on the style you choose. Aluminium race bucket seat options like our Proflow and Kirkey models are often sold as bare metal shells, allowing for complete customisation, including choosing your preferred cover separately. Meanwhile, fibreglass and composite models like SAAS or Proforce come fully upholstered in fabric, velour, or PU leather from the get-go. Remember, the installation process requires proper planning, so you will need specialised fitment and the right seat mounts for a secure setup — but the bolted-in feel is completely worth it.

What is the difference between an FIA-approved seat and a reclining sports seat?

An FIA-approved seat features a rigid, one-piece construction designed and tested to withstand massive motorsport impacts, making them mandatory for official racing. A reclining sports seat features an adjustable backrest for daily comfort and street practicality, but because it has moving hinge parts, it does not carry FIA certification for professional track use.

How do I select the right size for a Proflow or Kirkey race seat cover?

To get the perfect fit, you must match the cover size directly to the width dimension of your seat shell (measured across the hips), then match it to the manufacturer’s size chart. The team at VPW is happy to help with sizing questions.

Do you stock seats tailored for off-road and UTV applications?

Yes, we stock specialised UTV racing seats designed to withstand the mud, vibration, and moisture of off-road environments. These units also use materials that are easy to hose down after a day in the dirt.
