FAQs

What is QRT manufacturing?

QRT (Quick Resin Technology) is Sparco's advanced manufacturing process that creates exceptionally light yet strong fibreglass shells, offering a significant weight reduction compared to traditional methods without compromising safety or quality.

Is this seat suitable for real car racing?

No, the Sparco Evo L QRT is specifically designed and intended for sim racing use only. It is not FIA approved for real-world motorsport competitions.

What size options are available?

The Evo seat range includes Standard (Evo), Evo L, and Evo XL sizes to accommodate a wider spectrum of driver heights and builds.

What is the weight of the Sparco Evo L QRT seat?

The standard size Evo L QRT seat weighs approximately 6.8kg.

Do I need special mounts to install this seat?

Yes, the Sparco Evo L QRT is a side-mounted seat and requires specific side mount brackets designed for sim racing cockpits to attach it securely.

How does the non-slip material help?

The non-slip material is placed in strategic areas to reduce body movement during intense sim racing, enhancing driver comfort and safety by keeping them firmly seated.

Can I adjust the seat's position?

Seat position and recline angle adjustments are typically made via the side mounting brackets that attach the seat to your sim racing cockpit. Ensure your mounts allow for the desired adjustments.

Troubleshooting

Seat feels unstable or wobbly.

Ensure all mounting bolts connecting the seat to the side mounts, and the side mounts to the cockpit, are fully tightened. Check that the side mounts themselves are compatible and correctly installed.

Discomfort during long sessions.

Adjust the seat's recline angle and position using your side mounts. Ensure the lumbar and leg cushions are correctly placed. Consider adding optional cushion inserts if needed.

Material appears worn or faded.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as recommended. Use appropriate fabric protectants if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  2. Cockpit Integration: Securely bolt the side mounts to your sim racing chassis, then attach the seat to the side mounts. Adjust the angle and position to achieve your preferred driving ergonomics.
  3. Harness Compatibility: If using a racing harness, ensure your mounts and cockpit can accommodate the harness shoulder and lap belts according to safety best practices.

Compatibility:

  • Cockpits: Compatible with most sim racing cockpits that support side-mounted seats and have adjustable mounting points.
  • Mounts: Requires specific side-mount brackets. Check compatibility with your chosen mount manufacturer.
  • Not for FIA Motorsport: This seat is exclusively for sim racing and is not certified for use in real-world FIA-sanctioned motorsport events.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the fibreglass shell and upholstery. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Fabric Care: For fabric areas, a mild upholstery cleaner can be used sparingly. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
  • Inspection: Regularly inspect mounting bolts and the seat shell for any signs of wear or damage, especially after intense use.
