Under sustained cornering load you stop bracing with your neck and arms, which means your inputs stay clean deep into a stint. At 960 mm tall with an 800 mm backrest, it is the most enclosed seat in the Cold Fusion range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eActive cooling you can dial in\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree fans sit behind the backrest and one under the seat base, pulling hot air away from your back and legs — which matters more in a closed-in shell than an open one. They are floating-mounted, so when you load the seat under heavy braking they retreat into the shell and you feel padding, never hardware. A 3D mesh layer under the main cushion spreads the airflow instead of leaving one cold spot, and a rotary dial built into the seat changes fan speed mid-session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA real racing shell, not a gaming chair\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C2 is a single-piece glass fibre reinforced polyester moulding. One rigid shell means no flex and no creak when a high-torque direct drive base loads the rig up. It is finished in black velvet with four harness slots for 4, 5 and 6-point belts, and removable leg supports so you can fine-tune your seating position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEVO shell with head and shoulder wings\u003c\/strong\u003e — the most enclosed, GT-style position in the range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4 built-in cooling fans\u003c\/strong\u003e — 3 in the backrest, 1 in the base.
