Extruded plastic racing seat, around 50$us plus gel seat and back around 30$ attached to my 'spruce goose' platform.  Very comfortable, seat attached to front/back sliders for those intimate moments Big Grin  with your pedals!  Other option is my 5 year old grandson's.  Cup holder included!


Good luck, good racing!

This one has been around on the Internet from years, and thousands have built it or something real similar:

I'm about two weeks away from having the wheelstand portion of my monstrosity done, but I doubt anyone would want the plans to it.

I have a Playseat F1 seat. Not cheap, but there aren't any downsides for me. If you want an H shifter too, you shouldn't get that seat, as there's no room for it.
Playseat have a cheap, foldable chair too. If you don't want to build your own, and you're looking for something not too expensive, that could be an idea
