Going To The Track, Need Better Belts, and or Roll Cage?

Bottom line is I need better than my lap belts to run my car at the school. So, the lap belts must be replaced. I need a helmet, but being a convertible has no effect. Weird?

Hum, a five point roll cage means no more rear seat, and I'm not sure that's what I want to do. I've been thinking a long time about what to do about a roll bar/roll cage. Truth is I'm swinging toward racing seats no matter what I decide on the belts. I'd do just the shoulder belts, but I'm not sure the mounting location will be high enough on my stang to be safe. See why I needed y'alls advice. The reality is that if I put my stang on its top, I'm a dead duck, dead.

So do you think I should give up the rear seats and just do a cage? Well, then should I only do shoulder belts since they are not as safe but DOT legal?

Thanks for all of your input!!!

Edit:

Seems like there is a lot of conflicting info out there about roll cages and safety. http://sccaforums.com/forums/thread/239947.aspx
