Why Upgrade to a Carbon Fibre OMP RT Seat?
Upgrading to a carbon fibre racing seat offers several advantages over traditional fibreglass models. Here’s why drivers opt for this upgrade:
- Weight Reduction – Carbon fibre is significantly lighter than fibreglass, helping reduce overall vehicle weight and improve lap times.
- Enhanced Aesthetics – The exposed carbon fibre weave on the back shell gives the seat a premium motorsport look.
- Improved Performance – Lighter seats mean a lower centre of gravity and better weight distribution, crucial for competitive racing.
- Increased Durability – Carbon fibre construction provides excellent strength and rigidity while maintaining a lightweight design.
If you’re looking to shave off crucial kilograms from your vehicle and gain every possible advantage on the track, the carbon fibre OMP RT is the perfect solution!
OMP RT Carbon Fibre vs. Fibreglass – Key Differences
It’s important to note that the OMP RT Fiberglass and OMP RT Carbon models are two separate seats. While both are designed for high-performance motorsport applications, the fiberglass version is the one that’s in highest demand right now and the only model we stock at our showroom. We’ve taken in-store photos of both versions showcasing the key differences.
What sets the carbon fibre version apart?
- Weight Difference – The carbon fibre seat is considerably lighter than its fibreglass counterpart, making it ideal for weight-conscious racers.
- Unique Shell Design – Unlike the fibreglass version, the carbon fibre OMP RT includes three ventilation gaps in the shell with breathable fabric down the spine. This not only adds to the aggressive motorsport look but also helps with airflow, making it a better option for warmer conditions.
- Visual Appeal – The exposed carbon fibre weave creates a premium, race-ready aesthetic that stands out in any cockpit.
The fibreglass version remains a great option for those looking for a more affordable alternative while still getting an FIA-approved, competition-ready bucket seat. However, for those seeking ultimate performance and aesthetics, the carbon fibre OMP RT is the clear winner.
