				Bucket Seat Questions
			 
			I am a big fan of sport seats, especially bucket style sport seats, but I also need to use my 911 SC for a daily driver.  So here is the problem, with the bucket seats not tilting is there enough room to get things between the seats (like dufflebags) if I were to go for a weekend away? I was thinking if you had to of them and moved one all the way forward and the other all the way back that there might be some room to get stuff in and out of the back. Has anyone had any experience with this? Likewise are there any creative bucket seat brakets out there that allow for a long slide forward or mabye even a whole seat tip of somesort (not sure on that one). I was looking into Recaro Pole Position seats and I am not a big fan of doing mismatched seats. Any help would be appriciated as well as any pictures! (ps dont worry about fitting people in the back)

			Matthew,  One possibility that might make sense is a bottom mount shell bucket seat. You could mount sliders and get a lot of forward travel on each seat. I suppose one downside is the additional weight of the sliders. Also there may not be a lot of shell seats out there designed for bottom mount -although there are some. PS - I'm in Springfield. | ||

			Look at Recaro Speeds. They tilt up. I think they're a good way to go for street/track.

			Thanks for the tips guys, i was gonna use the Speeds as my back up choice anyway.  Also Jhoagg very cool that you are near by, im new to Porsche ownership and very excited. If you are interested there is gonna be some go cart racing with some porsche guys on Oct 10 around Ottawa (i think thats the town). If you are interested look up the Chicago Trip and Fall thread they seem to be a nice group of guys.

			Even if your seats don't come forward you can still fit duffle bags in the back by putting them between the headrests of each seat.
