Will I Fit?

My S3 Caterham had lowered floors and at 6’1” I fitted the car okay - will I fit in a Fury or Phoenix, it’s only just occurred to me to ask!

Thanks.

Yes but you might need to tweak seats, floor pan and maybe pedals to suit you depending on how each one was built

Thank you. I like a composite seat having been used to Tilletts in the 7 so I'll more than likely swap out anyways.

Interesting to hear that there are noticeable size differences between the Fury and the Phoenix.

I'm 6ft 5 have lowered floor pans (40mm) and I raised the dash bar by 20mm during the build (just helps getting in and out with my knees). Standard pedal position with modified cobra 7 seats bolted straight to the floor you will fit fine.

6'2" standard floor, I'm fairly large too.

fit fine, could be a little lower as at times, but manage to tour ok in the Fury.
On the wish list is floor mounted pedals and have them pushed forward an inch or two so i could lie down a little more and get lower in the car.

Massive difference. One is based on the striker chassis the other is not and so wider.
