You should fit pretty well, at you're height it is going to depend on the ratio of leg / body length.
We are supposed to adjust for size only with the pedals, they move quite a bit. If you are longer in the body, the seat can becomes a factor.
The car comes with a fiberglass seat or you can get a "custom" Butler aluminum seat. The Butler gives a little more flexibility in seating position, but takes up more space.
I'm 6'6", 220, with long legs, my personal car has a fiberglass seat opened up a little in the hips so I can spread my knees out a little. I have driven a few cars with Butlers, but have yet to find one where I am not making at least some small concession to make up for improper fit.
Best bet, try sitting in different different cars, most people are cool about it.
At 200, you may need either heavy bodywork or a couple lbs of ballast to make minimum weight.
Hard to go wrong with Scott Rettich, he is kind of good at it.
