I'm going to put on my grumpy ass old man pants right now and talk about the 12 years I've been in the tech shed. Things I've seen cant be unseen. Safety equipment is an all or nothing thing. your car is pretty safe without adding stuff (its designed that way)... as soon as you add things like fixed back seats your car becomes unsafe.
Harness Bar Failure... has more to do with side impacts

roof collapse WITH a roll bar (multi plane floor mounts help stop this)

I've seen my fair share of twisted metal from track events, from full on race cars to street cars split in two... roofs with human indentations, broken seats from hackjob seat back braces, poorly made name brand seat mounts, etc.
for your safety, just buy a helmet and track time. the other stuff isn't needed or safe.
