My co-driver is 5'7"-5'8" and he fits without a problem, but I also have the harness bar pretty close to the back of the seat. If you were much taller than he is you could not run with the harness bar where it is because the seat would not go back far enough.
All of that said, I managed to hit the padding yesterday for the first time ever. I was in a right hander and got int a really bad rut on the left. All momentum was going left and then the rut stopped movement, but my head kept moving. It was mid-run and it was no harder than me bumping it climbing in/out of the car, but it happened. The SFI padding did its job- no hard impact, no injury, no mark on my helmet.
I will say that I may get the A pillar bar moved to be tighter to the A pillar, but that will be down the road a bit. It is in a structurally sound location, but I may move it to be tighter to the A pillar for visibility and then have gussets added for strength.
