Si Track Drivers

How tall are you? How much height does your helmet add?

I ask because an acquaintance of mine was test driving my Si, and with the seat all the way down he had to slouch to fit in the car. He was pretty far forward, almost in an autocross style driving position, and is about 6'3.

As Im 5'6, I can have the seat UP and a helmet on and not have any problems, but was wondering if anyone else had.

I'm 6'2, and it is a pretty tight fit if you move forward. It is manageable however. I did have to move the headrest backwards because it was just uncomfortable driving with the helmet on.

5'9". I have no issues with roof clearance, however, the headrest is a PITA.
