I cant believe its not mandatory in the cars running in the 9's, hell they are running faster than SG and the dont have to have a neckbrace or wear gloves? Leave it up to the driver if they want a racing seat or not what's the deal will it make the driver better? I would feel safer in a seat where the belts are mounted properly, are attached to the floor in a non failure position.
