Momo Start & Super Cup Seats Arrive In-Store
In store, March 2023
The Momo Start and Super Cup FIA bucket seats are on display in the showroom for the first time. Like the Daytona seats that came in last month, they are finished well, with neat stitching and the yellow Momo arrow on the head of each seat.
The two share a similar shape, but they differ in the detail and the trim. Here is how to tell them apart, what else has changed in our Momo range for 2023, and what you need to fit one.
- Momo Start and Super Cup on display in the showroom for the first time
- Both fibreglass seats approved to FIA 8855-1999
- Five harness openings, HANS compatible, side mounted
- The Super Cup uses 3D spacer fabric on the centre back cushions
- The Start has a rounder, larger head support and smaller harness slots
- Our whole Momo range updated for 2023
What is on this page
Start or Super Cup
The Momo Start is trimmed in velour. Compared with the Super Cup it has smaller harness slots and a rounder, larger head support, and its overall design is the simpler of the two.
The Super Cup is velour all over too, but the centre back cushions are in 3D spacer fabric, which adds comfort and lets air through, so the seat stays cooler on a hot day. On our listings the Super Cup is the lighter of the two, at 8.2kg against 8.5kg for the Start.
Both are fibreglass seats approved to FIA 8855-1999, with five harness openings, HANS compatibility and side mounting. That makes either one a sound choice for club motorsport, and the choice comes down to fit and feel.
Garreth's advice is to sit in both. The head support and the shape of the harness slots feel different once you are in the seat, and that is hard to judge from a photograph.
Pairs ready to go
The Momo seats we hold in pairs are listed on our Speed+ page, in the FIA Bucket Seats Available Today section. Speed+ is where we list the seats we keep in the showroom, so they can go out straight away or be collected without waiting on a factory order. You can reach it from the top of our home page.
Our Momo range, updated for 2023
We have updated our whole Momo seat collection and the Momo fitting equipment. Two new seats have joined the range, XXL versions of the Daytona and Daytona Evo for larger drivers, which gives both of those models three sizes.
The rest of the listings now have better images, up to date sizes and FIA approvals, and recommended bundle items that include Momo’s own fitting equipment. Prices have come down in this update as well.
Fitting a Momo seat
Momo make fixed back FIA bucket seats, and they offer sliders and side mounts to fit them. For motorsport use the side mounts are the link between the seat and the car, so they deserve as much thought as the seat.
Tell us your car and how you use it, and we will recommend the mounts and runners to suit. Our guide to bucket seat mounting explains the options, and our post on the Momo Daytona and Daytona Evo covers the other Momo seats in the showroom.
