My car spends most of its time on the track...so I see it as a bit of a wash from a risk management perspective (I think having an airbag is slightly more dangerous on a track if you have race seat, bar, harness, hans).

But when I am on the road, I do look down and see no airbag and do this "?" for a second.

They are OEM 996 GT3/GT2 seats in carbon. I replaced the seat cushions with alcantara.
