The driving seat
Finally got around to getting a piccy of the bosses chair
Got the harness mounted in such a fashion that I can still use the inertia belt if carrying 5 up. The Sabelt harness has a quick release rear buckle so no need to rummage under the seat to unclip the anchor.
It's been some years since I last used a harness in a road car, it's surprising how good it makes you feel being strapped in nice and tight. I still would like a matching set for the passenger side for passenger rides, alas the wiffy won't be having none of it! Can't see what the problem is

So true Andy! The last time I was active competitively was approximately 15 years ago and somewhat slimmer and younger so it was therefore easier to execute! I do sometimes wonder 'what am I doing!'

I think it is called..............Growing old disgracefully !
Like the way the belts match the trophy blue
I have Sparco ones which have quick release on all three mounting points, a seat belt type release for the shoulder single strap just behind headrest and two D clips for the lap belts. Means I can have the 3-points for track days and then all the standard belts for normal day to day use.

Disgracefully
I wanted blue.............it seemed the right thing to do!
I'm still acting like a kid with a new toy, soon be thinking of going back to inertia......................perhaps!

Wouldn't the 3 / 5 points be safer even 'road going'?
