I sat in the mezzanine, but from what I could tell the seats will be fine. Obviously, the most important thing you want to see is the car, and it should certainly be viewable from the back of the orchestra, and the effect isn't ruined because you're not too close and you probably won't have to look up so much. Enjoy!
