OK im debating on getting a 5 pt racing harness black for my car.  
my main reasoning is that  
a. when i autocross which will be more n more often i will be able to stay in the seat  
b. A saftey feature when i drive fast  
c. drag racing also a safety thing  
d. Looks good 😛

or would i get laughed at because i dont have a cage nor dont really need a cage/harness cause im not running 11 seconds

finally what if i got nitrous n was creaping high 11’s then would u agree that i need a harness ???

Silver: If you get nitrous the only thing you will be creeping towards is a new rearend. But I would have no problem with racing harnesses.

VW’s are great handling cars, end of story

get the harnesses if you want to, do you know how to lock yourself into your seat using your standard seat belt system? I can lock myself in and not move at all just using my regular seat belt

M coupe is not a roadster…

and roadsters by definition arent that great for auto-, miata’s have a lot of success just because they weigh like 8lbs. if i was gonna build an auto-x car it would most definately be an old civic hatch with a b16 swap with everything imagineable ripped out of it.

and yes. VW’s are great auto-x cars, especially the smaller light ones.

didnt we already discuess this 😃 … well if you are doing auto x then im sure the 5pt’s will do you well, but we all know the main reason your getting them is for the look 😉 Id say get the 5pt’s over the VINYL… anything over vinyl !!! good luck with your winter project

The expert has spoken, let’s all dump your cars and go rip a honda apart…

Sorry dude, but you have 0 fucking experience in AutoX, go get a job and pay people the money you owe them instead of spending time here giving bad advice.
