Perhaps I'm missing something.

No you aren't. That too if you want to do it right.

I am a little surprised a the lack of off the shelf racing gear for these cars. I have only been an owner for a month but looking for things like springs, wheels, sway bars for handling and then safety equipment like harnesses and bars or even roll bars/cages, especially since there seem to be so many convertibles,has been disappointing. Perhaps I am just looking in the wrong places. That stuff for my other car was plentiful.

You shouldn't cut or modify a seat for the submarine hole. A seat without it is not designed for the forces encountered when the harness is "used" for safety. You would also need what is sometimes referred to as a tank plate to mount the harness to.it usually goes behind the seat at the rear mounting point and has connections for all five/six belts.

These cars are too severely overweight to be considered viable track contenders. There just isn't enough market demand to warrant additional products on the aftermarket. With H&R and Velocity AP, we certainly have adequate spring options.

I'd really like to see a Superlight version. I think the Miata I picked up while my F-Type is being repaired is something like 1200 pounds lighter. I'm not saying that the F-Type should be 1/3 lighter than it is, because the Miata is tiny and pretty austere, but 15-20% weight reduction would really be exciting. There were some luxury options I couldn't exclude that I really didn't want. Weight, weight, weight.

I guess I should have said you should not modify a seat to accept a harness if it is not designed with that in mind. I know we have the shoulder pass throughs but are they really functional?
