What I use:
https://www.sparcousa.com/product/6-...ns-aluminum-pd Good that you have a cage already. Never ever run a harness unless you have a cage. |

I have used the Sparco 6 point and currently using the Schroth Profi II 6 point hans. My experience is the the Schroth is better in terms of feel and quality, latch feel. Sparco is good but the Schroth IMO is better.

Schroth Rallye 4
Works well if you don’t want to run 6 points.

Thanks for the good information I drive a 2SS and find it difficult to stay firmly in the seat at the track. Is there a safe and inexpensive way to reduce "driver body slide" (for want of a better term) when cornering? Jeff |

good information
This looks like a good set up. Is it safe without a roll cage if the car winds up on it's roof? To provide more info i am 6'3" and ride with the seat as low as possible and sloped back to allow my helmet to fit under the corner of the sunroof by less than 1 inch.

I've been running a secondary non-slacking belt that loops around the seat and over the OE 3-point after fastening that. It also seems to keep the OE belt from doing any of its own slacking. Actually, I made up two of these, so that an instructor or any passenger would have the same level of restraint. One instructor who I'd invited to ride along for a session (I think his car was broken) actually passed this idea along as a suggestion to his assigned student. Re-purposed from the 1979 Chevy Malibu I used to own, and my crude stitching need not be able to withstand crash forces, only belt-tightening force. Norm

As I understand it CG=center of gravity. Correct? Any chance you could send me a picture of your set up in use? Thanks in advance. My current thinking: Need a way to lock the occupants waist (center of gravity) to the seat but allow torso to move away from seat in event of rollover. Correct? If so I am begining to formulate a solution. I work next 6 days so will give it some thought then share when able. Jeff |
