I run a saloon and I now run a 6pt
Use to have a 4pt, then purchased the extra strap, couldn't believe how much MORE comofortable it was, keeping the belt low and on the hips, before the buckle would gradually work its way up as the hips loosened off and during longer races I would be tugging the shoulder straps to tighten the belts... which made the problem worse
Not used a 5pt , because I was worried about the testimonials, but I know otherwho say it is not an issue.
Buy a 6pt, it is only about 15 GBP more and the fact that the harness fits properly may save your life.
And agree, make it one of the last things you buy, and get the latest possible (even if you borrow one to meassure up the bolt fittings)
