Yes but thats cheap foam at the race meetings it nowhere near the same stuff as Tony does, and really his fibreglass is to good a quality to use for racing, but the quality of it gives it a lot of strength with little weight.

I can hear you now Foam is Foam ..... wrong
I went over there last saturday to get my gaskets for my 600SS and stood in the doorway when I got there was Dallas getting enough foam to do two seat pads and two bum stops for his ZX10R race seats,
incidently Tony was suprised at the poor quality of Dallas race seat unit compared to the stuff he makes but i then did point out that Dallas needs them to be as cheap as possible so that he can replace them after he has launched the bike 10 foot into the air. OK Dallas didn't pay that much for a seat pad as he purchased the foam in a lump and will cut it and shape it himself. But if you want won made to go straight on then as with everybody Tony's time costs money as does quality.
Luckily for me I'll make do with any old ratty bit of dross and save myself some money.
