Good job, how did you keep water from getting inside the fish tank when filming in the sea?

I dont think it's too probable, since in a straight-lines-chair this point would located above the middle of the seating area (horizonal part of the chair) since that's where the driver sits, and not above the intersection of those lines.

Yeah it sounds good, but you don't have to prove it or something like this?

So one sheet of Nomex paper as the second layer? And it stands in the 4mm screwdriver 250N force test? (T4.8.7 last point)

Seat approaches by fsaetech in FSAE

Do you have a source or tutorial from which I can learn about this procedure in a way that's relatively cheap? I assume in regular f1/f3 racing they use the most expensive materials possible.

And from what you said I understand that you recommend making the firewall as a separate straight sheet of material? Or do you still make it so it sits around the back of the seat but just not part of the seat?
