Actually the belt trick worked perfectly. I twisted the seat belt 3-4X before plugging it in, it locked me in the seat like the 2 point harness I had in my RX7 did.

I may add the lap portion of a 4 point harness (turning it into a 2 point harness) to this Mini so I can lock myself into the seat.

Awesome pics!

I was wondering when you'd get a race seat.  The tighten the belt up didn't work on those slippery seats?  Lol

Cheaper options

Anyone have any suggestions for a nice light drivers seat that will hold me in place better?

I found these?

Maybe just a drivers seat? I really do not need the passenger seat.

There was a guy at the event snapping pics, he was friends with my client that was there, my client just forwarded these pics to me.

Wonder what compression ratio he has.  As well as cam and redline. He didn't go past 6k rpms in his video.
