Harness install points inside FD3S??

[speedjunkie]

I have the Raceshop bar too and I was planning on attaching the harnesses to it. Is that not a good idea?

Oh, I think I'm confused a bit. I only have the harness bar, not the roll bar. I don't think I would fit with a roll bar unfortunately haha. How tall are you Brent?

You will be fine to attach your harness to your harness bar.

I'm a little confused by your question You aren't loosing any headroom or any additional seat room with the M2/Raceshop roll bar as you can see in the pictures.

If he was mostly wanting to do 1/4 mile stuff that would be one thing, but on the street and on a road course, side impact situations are much more likely.

I see completely where you are coming from. Spot on with the side impact accidents. I worry more about side impact accidents on track opposed to head on... but the movement or no movement in a side impact is a double edged sword I think. Side Impact causing side to side movement... bad(Fritz can tell you first hand). Side impact without movement and the object penetrates the drivers side compartment, such as a car running a red light on the street(which I don't know how much door bars would help)... bad. That also brings up head/neck restraints as well as side impact halo seats(for track purposes of course).

Thanks, I was hoping to be able to attach them there, since it IS a harness bar and all LOL. I just wanted to make sure, I thought you were saying something else at first.

Haha, I'm not quite as worried about headroom, but I have really long legs and I need all the leg room I can get. I've been in my buddy's car with his roll cage and I don't fit very well. Just wondering. Plus, if I have my seat sitting pretty straight up, my head will hit the roof, so I have to lean it back a little more.
