In this case, I am still looking for a lap-belt adjustable formula car harness with 3" shoulder straps. I agree with DaveW and several others that the biggest issue with adjustable lap belts is making them short enough to hold the driver while still having adjusters and sufficient webbing overlap for sewing.
Since SCCA does not require autocross harness' to be current, I was using an Willans belt looped thru an old Simpson shoulder belt adjuster that was only 2.5" in length from mounting plate to adjuster buckle, but I cannot get anyone to reweb that belt in the same fashion.
Does anyone know of any manufacturer making a current formula car harness with 3" shoulder belts and adjustable lap belts?
