1:24 Sabelt Red - Six Point

The real subject

Racing seat belts hold the driver in the seat so firmly that he does not move an inch while driving. A six-point arrangement means six points of attachment: two straps over the shoulders, two over the pelvis and two running between the thighs, which stop the driver from sliding under the lap belt. Sabelt is a brand of racing seat belts that can be met in rally as well as circuit cars. The belts are among the elements everyone notices on a finished model, because a colored strap stands out from an otherwise dark interior.

What the set contains

The set brings seat belts in a red form and in a six-point arrangement, reduced for 1:24 scale. It replaces the parts from an ordinary kit, which tend to be thick and without raised stitching. The extent of the set, the form of the fittings and the kit it is cut for are given in the manufacturer's instructions, so check the match with your model beforehand.

Building tips

Fit the belts before you close the interior up with the body, because after that you will not get into the car. Try the seat and the attachment points out dry first and run the straps the way they run in reality, that is from the shoulders down to the pelvis without twisting. Cut the excess length off only in place. Let the strap follow the shape of the seat freely; a perfectly taut belt reads as unnatural. The procedure for gluing the individual parts is given in the manufacturer's instructions.
