It's not really free.

You have a certain amount of attention to give to anything. Keith Code calls it $1.00 worth. When autocrossing, you spend some of that money on looking where you're going, some on throttle control, some on this, some on that. Regardless, you have $1.00 worth. When you have to brace yourself, you now have to split up that dollar on looking where you're going, throttle control, some of this, some of that and some on bracing. Your available attention is less for the important things...unless you're SO good that you find extreme driving unchallenging. Me, I bought the harness and gained at least one second per run since I had more of that dollar available for driving.
