Default Race mode, new wheels and 6-point harness

Just go this set of Braid Winrace 10x18 w Yokohama Advan A048 265/35 18
The feeling is just incredible and the gip is absolutely astonishing like glued to the tarmac.

Also installed a set of Sabelt 6-point racing harness along with "Jet Jockey inspired" harness bar.

Default Where did you buy the Sabelts from? I'm having trouble finding harnesses with shoulder belts....

...longer than 6 feet.

Default interesting, id think that that kind of bar/harness would be a huge safety issue incase of a roll

over. What is the rear seats start flapping around?

Default very good point...I don't think the rear seats are locked in the down position.

and it's not clear whether the belts could pass over the top of the seats with the seats locked in the up position. probably best to remove the rear seat altogether if running this setup.

D'oh, I should have known to try them first. I bought the harness bar from them after all.
