Yeap, I know exactly what you mean. Got two of those myself.

Guys at EuroTuner were laughing when we were pulling the baby seats out at the drags. They stopped laughing when it went 12.56.

That was my first mod as well last year. I am going to add a matching mod behind the drivers seat in about 6 months.

Carl:

Everything is OK! Expecting him in a week or so!
I'll take it to the track next year and see if they put me with you in the "modified" class!!!

RareAMG:

No it's not a Brabus seat! It's a regular "Graco" seat (I think....I'm new at this baby world!)

Yessss.....M3's.....don't try this at home!!!

Congrats mate!

That mod is EXACTLY why i chose the C55 over the M3! Mine is 8months old and was very very happy in her graco.

Just got a steal on the MB seat, expecting it in next week, i'll have to let u know how it works

I like the whole 'disables airbags near baby' line

Congrats on the addition and the mod! I have a new addition myself,
and plan on contacting Harris for a sweet Graco baby seat mod. I hear
the offset weight distribution alone improves handling 23.7%.
