Does anyone have any alternate suggestions before I make the purchase?
Or a lightly used Rallye 3 harness they'd like to sell for cheap?  |
I fully endorse your picks. Great helmet, and great harnesses. And the $100 discount sounds worth it, since you'll be able to use that helmet for like 10 years at autocross, and on the track for the next 5.
I've got a set of those harnesses (as do like 10 other SECCS people) and love them. People will argue that they're not as safe as the factory 2-point belts in a rollover, but that's a decision you'll have to make for yourself. Personally, I run the schroths during both autocross and track days, as long as they're legal within the organization that's running the event (SCCA doesn't allow aftermarket belts on track w/o a rollbar, no matter what, at least that was the rule last season). I'd be happy to sell you my harnesses as soon as I get a cage, but the cage is being delayed a while, and my driver's belt does have signs of wear, so once I get a cage I will likely just toss them out, or sell the buckles/hardware as spare parts.
