Tillett Racing B8 Seat
The B8 seat is designed for road and track use in performance saloon cars. It suits drivers who want firm support, low weight, and comfort for daily driving. The twin molded construction creates a rigid structure while keeping mass low. This helps improve seating position and driver feedback.
The shell features a contoured shape that supports your body without restricting shoulder movement. You steer freely, even during aggressive driving. The seat fits the body so precisely that it does not require a full cover. This reduces overall weight and allows a lower driving position. For open top cars or harsh environments, the uncovered shell works especially well. For regular street use, Tillett recommends thin Dinamica suede panel sets for added comfort.
Key benefits for road and track use:
- Lightweight racing seat for performance saloon cars.
- High lateral support without limiting steering movement.
- Low seating position for improved driving feel.
- Suitable for open cockpit and exposed environments.
The B8 seat is available in two edge configurations. The B8-44.5 uses the Edges on design. The rolled edge at the leg area remains intact. This creates a smoother visual line and makes entry and exit easier. If your cockpit allows the width, this is the preferred option. The B8-43 uses the Edges off design. The rolled edges at the leg area are removed. This allows the seat to fit between the gearbox tunnel and door sill in tighter interiors. This option is ideal for cars with limited cockpit width while retaining the same core seat design and driving position.
