Default Recline the competition seats

I wanted to know if it is possible to recline my competition seat back on my 2019 ZR1. I thought someone did it but can’t find the info. If someone knows how it can or can’t be done I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks

Are you both giants or getting ready to shoot a rap video?

Scott,
Have you tried moving the seat all the way forward and seeing if the seat will tilt back more, just to see if there is more travel in it? It just may be all the travel that's allowed in the mechanism? I have never heard of a mod for recline on a seat just height as a Viper owner. Glad to see you have a sense of humor.
If you cant get it straightened out I recommend you send it here to Utah,I am 5'9 180lbs. I will work on it and report back monthly......Oh and you qualify for "Whoever dies with the most TOYS wins" though I wish you and yours long life. I will be looking for a ZR1 as soon as my Viper sells..

Its not much help but somewhere in the forum its discussed how to allow seat to go back farther. I think there is a harness under the seat if you do something too it will allow the seat to go farther back and possibly recline more.
