I belive the Speed is the new SRD.
I would get the one that is cheaper.

Speed is the replacement for the SRD. Speed has revised side boltsers and a higher "head rest".

Sit in both and see which one you like better, the SRD fits me better then the Speed for example.

Cramer, are you a bigger guy? This is one thing I have to worry about when buying a seat, don't want to be sitting on the bolster. Also, has anyone seen a pic with a vert that has speeds in it? Thanks

The SRD was made only in germany while the speed is made elsewhere FWIW

I'm taller then I'm wider ;) 6'-4", 220lb. Everyone is different so it's best to find a retailer near you or ask nicely next time you're at a track/race whatever if you can try someone's seats out. SEMA proved to be a great place to try out seats... sat in Recaros, Sparcos, OMP, Status, etc etc basicaly if a company made seats, they were there! I liked the new Ford GT style seats that Sparco makes, but the new Recaro line isn't as nice as the old (fitting me wise). Typically it seems Sparco makes a narrower seat, though they have a new Evo 3 out that is wider. The Milano was ok, but the SRD proved to be my favorite besides the old LE.
