The Kirkey 34 Series is the child containment seat with head surround, stepping up from the basic 24 Series bucket for junior drivers moving into more serious oval racing. The shell has an 18 degree fixed layback, containment sides and a head restraint section. It comes with a black cover. Width options are 12 and 14 inches, covering the range of young drivers in bandolero, junior sprint and other youth oval classes where a containment seat is required or strongly advisable. Part number is 34-Series.

The price is for seat and cover; brackets are not included. The 14 inch size suits older junior drivers; the 12 inch is for the smaller or younger child where a 14 inch would be too wide and would not hold the driver correctly in a lateral impact.

The 34 Series and the 24 Series are the two main child Kirkey seats. The 24 is the simpler 8 degree bucket for Quarter Midget racing; the 34 is the containment version for classes where the car reaches higher speeds and containment is required. A driver moving from Quarter Midget into a junior sprint car would typically step from the 24 Series to the 34 Series.

There is no intermediate size between 12 and 14 inches on the 34 Series. Measure the child’s seated hip width and contact us if the measurement falls between those two options; getting the fit right matters more with a child driver than with an adult, and Kirkey builds custom widths to specification.

Kirkey seat size guide

Kirkey aluminium seats are sized by hip width in inches, not by waist. Measure once, properly, and the size picks itself.

How Kirkey size their seats

The size is the width across the hips inside the seat. Kirkey’s method: sit upright on a hard surface with your legs slightly apart and measure straight across the widest point of your hips with a rule or a straight edge. A tape that follows the curve reads wide. Measure in the clothes you race in; a suit only adds to the snug fit.

If your hips measure a size exactly, order that size. If you fall between sizes go to the nearer one, and if you are within a quarter inch of the larger size take the larger. A Kirkey should hold you at the hips without pinching; there is no foam to take up slack.

Which Kirkey fits you

Series	What it is	Widths (inch)	Layback
38 Series Standard	The all-round aluminium seat for saloon and oval cars	14, 15, 16, 17, 18.5, 20	10 to 20 degrees, multi-mount base
58LW Series Lightweight	Lighter version of the standard seat	14, 15, 16, 17	20 degrees
16 Series Economy Drag	Drag and straight-line seat	15.5, 17.5	Drag layback
24 Series Child Quarter Midget	Junior seat	10, 11, 13	8 degrees

Covers are separateKirkey seats ship as bare aluminium. The padded cover is ordered to the same width as the seat.

Kirkey seats are not FIA homologated. They are used in drag racing, oval racing and grass-roots saloon classes; check your championship regulations before you order.

Measure yourself first

Four numbers decide whether a seat fits. Take them in the clothes you drive in, and write them down before you compare models.

AWaistAround your natural waist, not your trouser size. Trouser sizes usually run an inch or two under the real figure, and the waist bands on our product pages use the real one.

BSeated hip widthSit on a hard chair with your feet flat and measure straight across the widest point of your hips with a rule or a straight edge, not a tape that follows the curve. This is the number that decides whether a fixed shell is tight.

CShouldersStraight across the back at the widest point. Fixed back seats hold you here, so a shell that is narrow at the shoulders is uncomfortable long before it is unsafe.

DHeight and torsoYour height, and if you are over 6 ft whether that is mostly leg or mostly body. A long body needs a taller shell with the head support set higher.

Before you order

Check the car, not only the driver. Transmission tunnels, door cards and B pillars are what stop a wide shell going in. Our seat mounting and fixing points guide covers what to measure.
Side mount and base mount shells are not interchangeable. Which one you need depends on the car and the subframe, so pick the brackets at the same time as the seat.
If you run a HANS or plan to, filter on HANS friendly. The shoulder openings are cut to clear the collar.
FIA seats carry an expiry date on the homologation label. Check what your championship accepts and how long the seat has left, particularly on discounted older stock.

Send us your measurementsWaist, seated hip width, height and the car. We have fitted a lot of Kirkey seats and will tell you honestly if the one you have picked is going to be tight. Call 0115 989 3488 or email Sales@GSMPerformance.co.uk.

Widths are our product data, checked 6 September 2026. The measuring method and the layback angles are Kirkey’s own.

Will I fit in this seat?
Send us your height and waist size and we will confirm the fit. The paper dimensions only tell half the story, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so you get the honest answer rather than a guess from a chart.

How do I know it will feel right, not just fit on paper?
Fair question, because makers publish widths and weights, never feel, and two seats with identical numbers can feel nothing alike in the car. We keep the ranges on display in the Nottingham showroom, you are welcome to come and sit in them, and if you cannot get to us, call and describe your build, as the team sit in these seats every day. Our head support measurements guide shows the kind of real-world data we collect.

Availability

Kirkey comes through European distribution

Every Kirkey seat we supply comes through European distribution rather than direct from the USA. Stocked models run on a 7 to 10 day delivery schedule from the day you order.

Special order models

Anything outside the stocked range is built and shipped to order. That takes between 2 and 8 weeks depending on the model.

Before you order

Tell us the model and the date you need it for. We will confirm whether it is a stocked seat or a special order, and what the lead time is at the moment, rather than leaving you to find out after checkout.

In-store displays:

We have a premium range of over 125 seats from brands including: Bimarco, Cobra, Corbeau, Sparco, OMP, Recaro, GP-Race, and Bride to name just a few brands we work with.

Alongside this, we also stock and display HANS devices, harnesses, race-wear, race-suits, FIA helmets and various other safety equipment. If you are looking to visit us to see and try any particular seat or product, please contact us in advance and we’ll be happy to help.

In-Store appointments:

Due to the specialist nature of our services, we do ask that you please contact us in advance to book an appointment. We have multiple slots available each day including selected availability at the weekend.
