I just signed up for my first track day (technically second, but that's another story). My excitement was high as I researched track day brake pads, but then last night I got an email that bummed me out.
The email stated that I would need a 5 point harness in my car. They said it's because my car is older than a 2000 MY.
I am trying to think just how the hell I can avoid turning this into a $1000 track day. The pads alone are going to be $300+ then you factor in the harness. Then with the harness I would need a harness bar so that I don't crush my spine in the event of an accident. Add to that the fact that my seat doesn't have the dickhole for that 5th harness and now I'm clueless.
I have tried to think about the anchor points and the rear belt spots are the best (but then there's the angle). Then I don't know where the other two harnesses would latch down.
I'm bummed.... Is there hope or an I stuck in auto cross until I commit to the fuhraze stuff
