People need to remember the hans device hasnt been around That long. Plenty of people used the harness with no hans for a long time. Its not like your going to be hitting a wall going 200mph in your daily driver. Also the hans is a major factor when your wearing a heavy helmet on your head.

The crash that brings this up the most is Dale dieing. Ya he had a heavy helmet and hit a wall head on at well over 150mph. If he had a hans he might have lived.

I cant see how a harness would be unsafe on the streets. My supra has no airbag, with a regular belt my face is going right into the steering wheel. If I had a harness it might save me from that. Also if you put in a 5point for track use why not just buckle the lap part for street use. Im not sure how the harness works but if you can buckle the lap belt and 1 shoulder it would be the same as stock...

Of course, Im no seat belt expert and Im running stock belts.

My car just got back from getting the 8pt cage, I'm pretty sure I'm going to get Crow Enterprizes Harness. They make pads that sew into the harness and look really slick. They are reasonably priced, and have the cam lock that I want. Here is a pic:
