I am looking to get some new seat belts and I wanted to see what people are running and what they like..

I am thinking about these belts from dragon fire racing.. I like the sternum strap and I like the padded shoulders but I am not sure about the cam-lock.

I use RCI brand 5-way harness. They've saved my live more times than I can count. I've rolled my buggy about 30 different times and they still work great after 10 years it's about time for a new pair

I've always had 3" with the Sub belt you know the one between yo legs! That belt keeps you in your belts, also for us "FAT GUYS" that belt keeps the lap belt pulled down where it's suppose to be when you pull them shoulder straps down! I've seen so many dudes with their lap belt pulled half way up their belly, I'm pretty sure you could start a seat belt fail thread!

I should have mentioned that in my original post. Whatever seatbelt I get will be a 5 point harness. I updated the picture in my 1st post.

Has anyone ever had a cam-lock buckle get stuck with dirt and not release?

A friend has the five point dragon fires in his razor, he really likes them, I think they look awesome, I was going to get a set this winter, I don't think his are can locks there like the traditional latch style

I just checked on dragon fires website, there five points are only black, you can get the colored 4 point harnesses if you want color and buy the fifth point (crotch strap) separately in black to complete the five point

I went ahead and ordered the dragonfire seat belts today. Since I have one of my kids in the passenger seat 90% of the time, I got one child harness for the passenger seat and a 3inch 5 point harness for the driver.

I will apologize now for any adults that might need to ride in my buggy. :shock: :shock:

I took the cam lock out of my car due to the lock not releasing while upside down or in the lift off position .
Hopefully you have good luck with them Dan. .

here is proof that the cam locks do not release while under pressure.
