I want a Yellow Racing Harness..

Is this my only option?

I'm not so sure about the quality of these and the seatbelt closure doesn't leave me with a lot of confidence.

What else is there?

here is mine, top of the line, not sure about what you have shown. Dont know how safe harnesses are that dont pass through the seats. check out the schroth site they do have a new four point set up you may like

These guys have 5 pts in yellow. It seems like very few people carry yellow. It's all red, black, or blue.

thanks guys. Tom, your Schroth belts appear to be black with yellow pads, correct?

Are there certain standards of safety testing I need to look out for in terms of harnesses? I do expect these belts to keep me safe during high speed runs and track days.

It looks like there's two major certifications: SFI and FIA.

Jeff has it right.
The schroths have the yellow pads. without the black belts have the schroth words in yellow also.
Many belts on the market get a known rated brand as some are just window dressing to look cool and actually do nothing.
They also come with an expiration date (usually 2-5 years) You have to keep that current if you track the car but otherwise it probably isnt necessary to change them out unless signs of obvious were.

+1 on the Schroth, I think they are the only company to offer DOT approved harnesses and I believe they have them in yellow.

PM'd you... I have a brand new 5-pt set (pair) in yellow. It's either Safecraft or Schroth; can't remember.

I'll look/confirm tonight.

- Forged aluminum anodized (black) cam-lock system

- 3" belts
- Meets SFI 16.1, date of manufacture is 10/04
