You daily that car? Respect.

Your harness setup is not safe at all tho. You shouldn't use 4+ point harness without roll bar or ideally roll cage. Roof could crush your spine in case of roll over this way. Upper straps should be mounted parallel to the ground or descending at 5 degrees angle max.
 
Yes you're right but if you hit in the steering wheel without these harnesses you are dead
Daily i mean ride once in a week and not 100% race car
 
I agree that it has both advantages and disadvantages. I personally know a guy that had very similar setup to yours. E36 coupe, 4 point harness mounted in rear seats seat belts points, except he had Vader (M3) seats and it was a grip car. He had head on crash at ~100kph, because some dude coming the other way fell asleep. He partially dodged him but totalled the car nonetheless. Doctor told him that the harness saved his life, because the stock one would damage his internal organs fatally. In that particular case even more than 5 degree descent worked fine and lack of cage didn't matter. You never know, sometimes improper setup saves your life and sometimes it might kill you.
 
Thanks manIt was my second time drifting, no one has ever shown how to drift. My girlfriend edited the video that's why the video has some random passes..
