My one bugaboo here is the four points...there's a reason why SCCA requires 5 point minimum for harnesses...if you ever crash in this thing at speed you're gonna slip right underneath that lap belt...the 5th point on your groin will most likely keep you in the seat. This segways into a whole other barrel of fish, but for the most part this is an amazing 2.5 rs build. I hope the owner sees this comment and does some research regarding harnesses and why a 5 point is a hands down, no brainer route to go with.

You are not wrong. These harnesses have “ASM” technology. It should help the submarining effect, but I am well aware forsure. I am going to be looking more into the safety stuff next year. I am going to put the car down til next year. Been spending too much on this thing. I need a break haha
