So, this past weekend I did some reading over at CC about harnesses/roll bars/harness bars and am now more confused then when I began.
Basically, before my last event, I was thinking about the whole harness roll bar thing and my car (86 SVO). I thought I'd put it off for another year. However, my instructor said I was 'fast enough' that I should consider it. So that answered the question for me. IN trying to read about how many point harness to go with I came up with the following things
1 - Harness bars are bad because in the event of a roll over I could potentially break my neck since you are held firmly in place by Xpt harnesses.
2 - Roll bars are bad for street cars because in the event of an accident, even with padding I could potentially bash my (or passenger's) skull
What is SVT P's OTers recommendations? My car is a STOCK car right now that rarely gets driven, even on the street. The purpose of the car was to do OT/HPDE.
Input?
