Unhappy Any tall SPF GT owners here?

I just went down to Hillbank and had a good long sit in a Superformance GT MkI.

.... my knees hit the bottom of the dashboard.

.... my head was firmly ensconced in the upper portion of the Gurney bubble.

... my left foot had no place to go. (no surprise there...)

The SPF GT was MUCH tighter than I feared. So much so, that it would be almost undriveable for me, sitting like that. (I'm 6' 1" and 165lbs) Plenty of side-to-side room, but I felt like Clarkson on TopGear, with my head sticking half out! I have a Lotus Elise, and find it roomy enough, but I DO need the driver's seat all the way back in order to fit.

While I didn't get to speak to Lance, Justin told me that there was some adjustment available in terms of the seat height or position... although it was unclear if one had to specify seat position when the car was ordered, or if the seat could actually be removed to be worked on (can it?).

Have any of you gotten your SPF GT and successfully removed, adjusted, or otherwise fiddled with the seat to get a better position? Please describe....
