Turbo GT Weissach doing what it was built for

[Batattack]

I race in the Time Attack EV class and am probably one of the few people doing so with this car. I’m planning to install a 6-point harness and am currently looking into how to mount the two anti-submarine belts that attach beneath the seat.

For the 911 platform there seem to be ready-made mounting solutions available, but I haven’t been able to find anything similar for the Taycan. I thought I’d ask here on the forum if anyone knows how to properly install a 6-point harness in a Taycan Turbo GT, or knows a company or person with experience doing it.

I’m also building my own version of the Manthey kit for the car, and the plan is to compete at the Nürburgring this October in the European Time Attack Masters event. The official Manthey package for the Turbo GT has been a great source of inspiration for the project.

If anyone is interested in following the car, the races, and the development throughout the season, you can find me on Instagram at @batattackgt

This is great!

How have your results been for the car on the track? Any feedback?

Unfortunately in the US, we only get the 18way seats, not the bucket seats


Here are some more Manthey details

The car is excellent on track for such a heavy vehicle. Its biggest challenge has been understeer and front-end grip. Those have improved with the addition of a front splitter and more effective air extraction from the front wheel wells, but there is still room for improvement.

The car is significantly faster than the Taycan Turbo S (2020–2024), which I also used to drive on track before this one.

I assume the Manthey aero addresses the front end grip issue?

Batattack,
Could you make an adapter plate that picks up the seat attachment bolts and use that ? How does Manthey do it?
