Street Track Car - Roll Hoop and belt suggestions Options

[Justinp71]

What setup for roll protection and belts do you guys like to use for a street/track car? I am looking to update / redo my setup soon and looking for what you guys have done.

I currently run a roll hoop that bolts to the floor and belts that are bolted to the firewall (but not very adequately). I'm kind of ruling out a harness bar due to the reports of the belts being mounted a little high.

Does a roll hoop even really add much protection with the 914 having the targa bar? Does anyone know why they added them to the 914 gt? Maybe for a more high speed crash?

Something else to consider but I didn't see mentioned:

"Equal restraints for driver and passenger".. No instructor wants to sit in a stock seat and 3pt belt when you have a race seat and harnesses.

So, x2 when you replace your seats/harnesses.

And as someone else mentioned, it doesn't have to be a "race" to be an accident.. DE.. High speed.. 1970s' weak sheet metal between you and impact. Safety is somewhat personal and you decide the minimum you want.. but realize that the insurance underwriting the events is what is driving the minimums standards up.

Stock seat with harnesses was fine (well, allowed maybe is more accurate).. in the 1990s.. its not fine today.

On my '76, the car had a Safety devices bolt in cage that was welded in. It also had stock seats. ugh.

Pulled out the back pad, had a harness bar installed at the correct height and replaced the stock seats with some Kirkey Aluminum road race seats. Reasonably comfy. very nice when driving on the track.
