Carl, just a side note from another driver. In my Spec7/ITA car I had a Kirkey ??? model. When selecting seat for my Spec Miata and comparing Kirkey to UltraShield Pro Road Racing seat, Ultra Shield got the nod because one's ribs are the weakest body part other than the head and I liked the lesser amount of rib wing wrap around. One time in life I had 5 fractured ribs and oh my breathing was very sensitive for a long time. Don' want to go there again.
Is your concern that the seat allows shoulders to have more lateral movement that the rib-area?
