Either way... Judging by your lap times; your seats are not holding you back!

I will not be posting a twerk video... but If I did, it would be done to the music of Sir Mix A Lot's "Baby got Back".

You're in San Diego, ever come up to any SoCal tracks? I'll meet and show you at a track. Come up with Kaiv, Roland, etc - I see them all the time at tracks. Race seats & 6-point harness looks better and has the advantage of (once adjusted and setup) quick click-and-ready-to-go advantage, whereas with stock seat, sometimes you gotta do it a few times to get it just right (without it being way too tight or too loose & letting the cam unlock). Ultimately, I'm sure race seats are more safe, but I'm not out there w-2-w racing.

I'm not trying to be adversarial, and I think the cam-lock trick is great; but I think your claims are ridiculous. I go to some of the Speed District events (was at Streets of Willow last Friday), and hit Chuckwalla a couple times this year (Starcar Sports).

I will look forward to seeing you at a future event. As I stated above; I'm glad it works for you and your lap times are very impressive so I know that you are doing just fine as is

I tried locking the seatbelt for awhile until it came unlocked a couple of times in a turn. On top of seeing a couple of exploded cg locks...I just went with the Mini QFs before the actual E9X version came out.
The quick fits will keep you in the seat, you just have to adjustment properly. First, you need to get the tail strap length correct. Then you have to get the lap belt low and tight before pulling on the shoulder straps. That's what locks your hips in place. I see too many people with improperly adjusted quick fits AND then they don't even strap in right.

The one question I have in my mind from this thread is...
Can white males really have "booty"?

I've also had the Schroth 4-pt, a 5pt, and a 6pt harness in different vehicles over the 2 decades of turning $$$ into noise. The trick shown works great for HPDE at any level. To feel the most safe I'd prefer the 6-pt w/Hans in my old fully caged race car. I don't feel 'unsafe' in the stock seat and seatbelt. I feel most uneasy and unsafe on the commute to/from the track b/c 95% of the drivers don't know how to drive. It seems to be fewer than that don't know how to drive on the track and we're all going the same direction. I've had more 'oh shit I'm gonna die' moments due to other drivers on the street than I have while driving on the track. This includes when I've been airborne (twice) with a significant yaw angle on track (BW both times!). The times I've been airborne w/o a significant yaw angle are more fun (the 'ring). Nice video, OP!
