Just curious to see how tall the tallest Ultima owner/driver is, and what mods were required to squeeze them in?

We will start off with one of our drivers being 6'2", excluding helmet (so maybe effectively 6'3") and no mods required.

well I am 6ft 4 but as mine is a spyder I do have spare headroom! But worth having the lowered floorpan if a GTR/Sport. Some builders forget that with a helmet you might not fit!

I think Keith (Ditto) is something like 6' 4".
No special mods apart from lowered floor.

Main consideration would be inside leg measurement as someone may be tall but not long in the body.

My concern would be the drivers body height - there seems to be plenty of leg room in the car, though my concern is that with a helmet on, a taller driver's head may hit the top of the door or the rollbar.

I'm 6'4" but I haven't finished building mine yet so I can't tell you if I'm going to fit!

Here's hoping someone else has been the guinea pig for me...
