This competition focused seat is a new direction for Tillett Racing Seats and is based on our popular B6 Screamer. It retains the compact dimensions of the B6 but also has a side impact head support.
The seat can be used comfortably without any lower padding, giving ultimate feel and feedback but at the same time retains great peripheral vision, which is essential in a competition seat. The ability of this seat to be used without covering and the carefully sculptured shape mean that you can achieve a lower driving position with more legroom than most of the competition. Its perfect ergonomic shape gives excellent support, whilst at the same time leaving the shoulders free to help steer the car unhindered.
The C1 is ultra rigid but under impact envelops and decelerates the occupant in a controlled and limited way to avoid injury. This safely keeps the competitor in the intended position within the cockpit. The rigidity is vital for stopping the harness and Hans device from becoming loose during an accident. Another benefit is that the uncovered version is ideal in harsh environments.

Starting from a one-person operation in a small garage, it has grown into a proposed 22,000 square foot factory catering to multiple racing teams worldwide.
Tillett Racing Seats has always pushed itself in continuously improving its products by actively competing and testing it against top racing drivers. Using actual data, they incorporate these into their products and adapt to the needs of the drivers.
Having the company’s grassroots in kart racing, Steve Tillet, the company’s founder, made the first prototype of the Tillet seats out of his need.
During the ’70s, with the introduction of stickier tires for karting, it is common for racers to have ribbed bruises due to slipping and sliding in their seats. By using fabric from a used motor vehicle and attaching it on the seat, they were able to eliminate the injuries.
This, in turn, allowed them to attack the corners more aggressively compared to their competitors. It was noticed by other racers as well. It eventually led to them ordering the same seats for their race cars.
Tillet products never stop evolving. And this has allowed them to stay ahead of the competition.
It has become an essential part of some of the most successful race car drivers. This includes Michael Schumacher, Max Verstappen, Lando Norris, Kimi Raikkonen, Jenson Button, Robert Kubica, and Lewis Hamilton, to name a few.
With multiple successes under its belt, you are sure to have the best racing seat available in the market. Tillett Racing also offers other racing accessories such as rib protectors. Visit Vivid Racing and check out what Tillett racing has to offer.
