A racing wheel is the alternative as Maddawg stated it here...

As for Y Belts...I have not seen anything in the rules against it...although, I do recall hearing it somewhere, they are not acceptable....I will look into this one for you Poppop!

Y type shoulder belts are not legal in N.J. . Also the quick release type mounts, i,e.. using an eye bolt and hook w/safty catch.

Thanks for the info Dr.D I'll get individual belts. Is there anything special about the way they want them mounted?

You can use the metal ends that come on the lap belt part of the harness and bolt them securely into the frame on each side of your seat. You cannot use the metal ends of the shoulder belts or use any type of bolts. They want the end of the shoulder belt wrapped around the cross bar that connects between your roll bar hoop and use the provided adjusters to secure the ends. Hopefully your cross bar is at the right height so the angle of the belts is close to your shoulder height. It would also depend on which type of seat you are using, the stock seat or racing seat with belt cut-outs.

If you are using the stock seat, the height of the cross bar is critical to make sure your shoulder belts are mounted at the right height. If this cross bar is too low, you risk spine injuries in a front crash, as the shoulder belts will pull you down into the seat during impact. Some guys have welded in an additional cross bar to get it at the correct horizontal height (I think Sac Man above did this). Your new belts should have come with a diagram showing the proper angle of the shoulder belt attachment. If I remember correctly, the shoulder belt height/angle should be 10 degrees above your shoulder height when sitting in your seat.

In holding with the long standing racing safety rules and the financing thereof in the state of N. J. a toll booth will be installed at all start/finish lines to defray the cost of technical inspections...................
The N. J. vehicle inspection centers are lobbying to not only test racecars for solid pollutants and emissions but to charge all drivers for air pulled into the carburetors by the cubic feet per minute.....................
Stay tuned for further updates concerning the state with the fewest amount of race tracks in the free world.......................
