I did find a G-Force Torso Harness/Strap that basically does exactly what I want and is even cheaper and easier to install.

BTW - Returning a lease vehicle with a rollbar installed is not a good idea.
I'm with you on that I would love something that would hold my torso in place too. That device you found looks kinda uncomfortable though, but maybe its not. I need to see a pic of what it looks like when buckled up.

It would be cool if there was a way to make the seat belt tensioner lock on demand and stay that way until you release it. That I would happily buy for 20 bucks.

Did you get the strap? Using it? If so, like it?

Would you happen to have a photo of it in use?

I really like mine.



ps: I use mine in conjunction with the CG Lock.

Thanks for the info, I just ordered one to test at Sebring in two weeks.

Do not use this on track.

Unless you enjoy broken ribs or have a deathwish.

How does that work with airbags? Did you remove them?
