So when a female driver is a hot shoe, is it inappropriate to refer to them as having *****? Would this necessitate an upgrade from 5 to 6 points?

Mindy - Quite right..

Women is built different. Very happy about that too.

There are exceptions - You haven't met my ex-wife. She has brass ones. (Kidding - we do get along by the way).

All humor aside - I don't think most women really relish the thought of a 4G load up their crotch.

Either way, when getting belts its nice to consider the needs of other passengers or drivers. I've had students with 5 points and I was not a happy camper.

A major value to the 6 point sub-belt is that the load is distributed laterally by two belts to the sides of the inside legs. Muscle - not soft tissue.

Two places to distribute load and not just one.

Coochas, when a woman is in a man's world she has to have the bigger *****.

So, do the driver and passenger have to have the same type of harness? Example: Driver=5 point, Passenger=6 point

I have the Schroth Hybrid II HANS in my race car. But, I would not buy them again. They are a pain to put on. Instead, I would buy the Schroth Enduro belt system:

The Enduro still has hardware under the round connector, it is quicker to to connect one slip in buckle than the 2 soft loos on the Hybrid, the only time I could see it making a difference is in a driver change during an endurance race.

The Hybrid II uses 2" shoulder belts for use w/ a HANS device, Hybrid III uses 3" belts for use w/o the HANS

Here is a pic of a Hybrid II, w/ tunnel side hooked up in the sub loop and the door side loose, the door lap clip goes through the soft loop, there is no hardware at all below the controller, much more comfy on tender parts

It makes a difference every single time I put the belts on....
