A year or two ago there was a thread on rennlist's racing forum regarding not only sub strap anchoring points but designing a saftey system. One well respected poster spoke and showed examples of sub straps secured by an eye bolt with a large diameter washer mounted through the floor board. Remember on where the floor board was so deformed by forces exerted on it by the sub strap in an incident that the sub strap was probably ineffective. The poster recommended that the mounting point(s) be reinforced bywelding a steel bar to to the chasis and mounting the sub to that bar.

If there is one thing that I have learned in life is that people and equiptment do fail and they will generally fail at the worst time. The advantage of not mounting harnesses to the samechassis points as your seat is that if your seat mounting point or bolt fails I believe that you will be afforded some protection from the harness. I wonder if there has been any testing regarding these issues.
