I've got one its not bad it does hold you in the seat better a bit like a harness but its not as good.
I'm interested to see how badly it wil wear the seat belt though it seems ok at the moment but I'm sure it will wear it after time.
My only worry is what happens in a crash as the pretensioner will pull the belt tight but if you've got the CG lock holign you in tight I'm worryied what might give.

Exactly what I think edde...if the pretensioners fire...OUCH

I have one fitted to. And was thinking the same thing Edde.

Might need to start doing sit ups!

Works quite well on track, as it does hold you in a bit better than normal belt. Bit like on an aeroplane.

did any one try this out at FCS

I have one as you know

Lent it out to Iain yesterday - said it made a big difference when on track.

A top tip is to put the seat back, pull the belt quick to lock then get a mate to help you pull the seat back into position - this seems to work the best.

Yep I used it on track. I've used it before.

Hi!
CG-Lock has been safety tested with and without pretensioners and proven not to affect the safety. The CG-Lock holds you where the expensive (one off) pretensioner pulls you back to when its too late. If the CG-Lock is pulled tight, the pretensioner will not pull as the CG-Lock is providing the necessary tension.
Top professionals recommend the CG-Lock for any performance driver NOT wearing a full race harness.
Anyone interested in a group buy?

If the group buy goes ahead, then I think they should match the best price available on the net, or beat it. These are available for £28 delivered from ebay in the usa. I bought one and didnt pay a penny more.

 

[jonnyjogpants]

thats very good to know.... thanks dave if they are that price or cheaper my consider two

I rate these hugely, I use mine daily to help with a slight lower back pain/problem (helps keep your seating posture correct), and on track it's superb. As Day says above, with a little fiddling you can really keep yourself pinned in the seat.

I too was worried about the seat-belt pre-tensioner thing...so I had Mike at Rentech disconnect my drivers side pre-tensioner.

Worth every penny.

Much better than a screw driver in the inertia reel.
