Firefan Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Looking at a car with (original) Recaro seats (replacement for old seats) but the synthetic material looks rather worn. Can new covers (maybe leather or leather look) be made that fit them perfectly - or will it generally be hard to do - and require complete change of seats (hope not, as they are comfortable and rather expensive). Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a circuit at the rear of Secon Square its mostly for Karts and bikes but I have seen pick-up and saloon racing there - the surface looks a bit bumpy so posibly I think you need to go bira to see the better races Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indothai Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I went there last Sunday, and the traffic was mad. There was an on-ramp leading to Seacon Square and it was backed up with cars. Is traffic always that bad?... Is there a good time/day to go there, when traffic is the least? That day on Sunday, I only passed by Seacon Square without stopping, didn't want to waste time in traffic. BTW, what time do the shops there normally close?

Skyline Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Hi All, Actually,the car accessory shops around Seacon arent that great.There is a shop inside Seacon that does some OK performance parts and another in the basement car park.The best place for performance parts is either Chaeng Khong on Bangna-Trat or some of the shops around Chinatown. Yes,there will be a racing event on Sunday behind Seacon Sq.Drag,drift and gymkhana racing from 9am onwards.Also every Saturday night there is a drag event at Khlong 5 raceway.
