- EAEduardo A. d. S.Verified BuyerReviewingTRX V2 Racing Simulator - TIFOSI REDRated 3 out of 5 stars5 months agoNice, good quality, but need better instructions
The color is amazing, the structure is super strong, the built quality is good, but the manual needs some work, some step would be way easier if in a different order, in fact i saw after some videos an most of the reviews did not follow 100% of the instructions. The bad part is the shipping, my box arrived completely destroyed, scratches on the red frame, it's cosmetics, does not affect the functions but if i could i would never ship with FedEx, they also delayed for weeks the deliver (even lost one of the boxes, but Trak replaced).

Seat is very sturdy and fits a compact rig well.
The vinyl pad on the back made me sweat, and I found that the bare fabric was as comfortable! I still have the seat pad in, which is fine. Removing the headrest pad was necessary for VR.
Long term performance hasn't been determined, but it's pretty easy to forget about the seat while driving, which is a good thing.

Great overall bucket, very sturdy but I would like a tad more lumbar support. But nothing a small pillow can't solve.
