Regardless of how you feel about all that (all safety is a tradeoff after all - you'd be safer not driving at all!), if you're going 4-point instead of 5/6-point, consider using Scroth's belts with the anti-submarining feature, e.g. SCHROTH RACING > Professional Racing Harnesses . It helps make up for the lack of 5/6-point attachment by letting your shoulder roll forward a bit to keep you from digging under the lap belt and getting really ****** up.
Agreed I am not too worried about roll over. I Ax and an airfield and there really no spots for me to even get the chance of rolling over.

I looked into the ASM belts but I'm not sure that's needed as well. What are the chances of me hitting something head on on the course? I would go with a 5 point be they don't work with stock seats :-(.
