Your harness should be attached to the main hoop, and not that far back on the cage.

I'd say ditch the harnesses....

Sorry. I'm no help.

Why's that?

car's gonna see Road America a few times this year, with a possibility of 2 other road courses also, will see some drag strip runs.

i don't see a good place to mount a harness on that cage. and the floor will put a weird angle on the harness..

fyi i have those pink harnesses haha

Why don't you have someone weld in a harness bar on the hoop, and do it right with a wrap around..

I have the bolt in harness in purple.

I also agree, get another bar welded on there and bolt it to that.

this would be your best option IMO.

Ditto with the new bar welded in - get the correct angle and distance then

What cage is that by the way ?

Looks strikingly similar to the Cusco cage in my S14.

It would be best to add a bar on the main hoop and use wrap-around harnesses with it.

Also be sure to reinforce the floor where the cage bolts to - looking at my cage, it's bolted to what I think is the weakest part of the floor. In the event of an accident, it may do me more harm than good, which is why it's being removed soon.
