I have an F1 Carbon Kevlar Bucket Seat and Bride Low Max Seat Rail that came with the car I bought. I can drive the car fairly comfortably but the problem is I have to reach with the tip of my shoe to get the clutch the whole way back and I would feel a lot more comfortable if I could slide the seat up at least one more click. Is there anything I can do? Will a different type of rail slide up further? I am 5'9" if anyone is wondering.

Also is there a way to install stock seatbelt lock along with the racing seat? I have the belt in the car, but the side that clicks is attached to the stock seat which is in my garage.

Thanks!

In regard to moving the seat up, see if you can move it up a hole or two on the mounts itself.

I know on my seat, there was a large lug I used on the side for the factory seat belt latch

And lastly, you shouldn't ever need to return the clutch with the tip of your shoe. Check adjustment/freeplay, and bleed it.

get some pedals? that would give you another ~1/2 inch or so. Or lower the front part of the seat more.
