They think racing drivers sit like that, when in fact racing drivers sit nigh on bolt upright to maximise control and visibility. It’s actually more comfortable too.

Indeed, Mr Bell! And... The first thing my instructor at the Porsche Experience track at Silverstone did was to get my seat adjusted a bit more upright and a little closer to the wheel. I haven't dared adjust it since!

My 911 owners handbook has the recommended setting for the seat and I use their method in all my cars :):cool:
