The other flip of the coin is why mess with it. I ride motorcycles on the street and do track days were you hit 140+ mph every single lap.

At this point I should look at my guardian angel and see what condition they are in.
lap belts only may keep you in the car but your upper body will rotate around the belt and your head will hit the steering wheel or the windshield. If you are installing lap belts, why not spend a little extra time and install shoulder restraints at the same time.
