I would try to make a 5th point work even if its over the front of the seat.
I agree with Jake, last year I ran a new harness and did not install the 5th belt. It was a mistake, as mentioned you can not cinch the belts tight around your hips.

Also, when you get into more road racing sheet happens, adrenaline rush can play with common sense at times. Experience will teach you the limits of yourself and car, generally my fastest lap times are right after an incident.

Oh and personal preference is to wrap the belts around the shoulder bar, I think it looks cleaner and takes a bolt / tab / weld failure out of the equation.
