crotch straps

5 or 6 point work exactly the same in a "production" car. You rally need to be tilted back to "need" the 6 pt.
The purpuse of both is to hold the lap belts down so they don't slide up and you slide under.

whats the purpose of the 6 point sub straps compared to the single on a 5 point
"I was able to see a presentation by some folks from GM Racing about safety equipment just a few weeks ago. For me, the compelling data was the difference in body movement, and the resulting chest compression, btwn the 5 and 6/7 point harness. Your sternum will also appreciate the benefits of a 6 point."
It makes sense that there would be greater limitation of movement of the point at the camlock location with 2 "opposing" straps rather than 1 that can freely "pendulum around", if you get what I'm trying to describe.
