- I own a 91 miata, im setting it up for solo 1 and 2... Is there any difference in safety for a 5pt harness with a latch and link system vs a 5pt harness with a camlock system? I'd like to save a few

- I've never seen anyone accidentally open a camlock in competition, and have seen it happen with latch style. Charlie Davis /// unsubscribe/change address requests to majordomo@autox.team.net or try /

- Improvements have been made, including either a Velcro cover over the end of the handle (Simpson) to different style handles. NASCAR uses latch type...they crash a lot... I just installed belts and u

- I used lever-latch style for years in Solo 2, and changed to camlock in '95. I'll never go back. Holding all those little ends together while fastening the lever is a major PITA compared to clicking

- For Solo II, check out the "dune buggy" style harnesses from Crowe. I'm a big fan! The shoulder belts are sewn into the lap belts, making it much easier to use! They are latch & link, but 2 less ends
