Only had a couple chances to ride in them, but I love them.
Tough to say if they're safer, I'm no expert, but I'd say they should be much safer than normal suspension seats simply because they'll hold you in better and the head-rest extends higher up, past the center of your head, so they should be more supportive in a crash. Not sure how they'd stack up against and FIA homologated seat like a Sparco evo, I assume they'd be comparable, but as far as I know they have not been tested head to head, so I doubt anybody can tell you for sure.
Not sure who would have some in stock, as I've never seen a "standard" one, everybody gets custom colors and materials, but call around, somebody will have one sitting in their showroom for you to take a test-sit in, closest place I can think of to call in NorCal is Poly Performance, though Shaffers may have one as well.

I have the 3G wide version in the pre runner and they are good comfortable seats. Only issue was getting them, Mastercraft sucks took over 10 weeks to get them to build them and their customer service is horrible. Mastercraft could give a S... about their customers, I even talked to the owner and he blew me off and tried to get me to buy some lesser quality seats they had in stock. I have Beard seats in the 1 Car and they actually have better back support.
Sit in them first.

I just ordered 2 for my car and it only took 5 weeks (they told me 4-6 weeks). I ordered them from http://off-roadproducts.com/mastercraft_3g.html
They were only $529 each and free shipping. We will be racing in them next weekend…

I'm Still looking for a set of seats to put in my Group T / 1450 truck I'm building.
I keep going between 3G's, Corbeau, and some type type of Sparco seat. My issue is I'm a big guy trying to fit in a small truck. How much room does there need to be between the bottom of the seat and the floor of the cab in a suspension style seat?
I really wish someone in NorCal delt with some of this stuff, I'd prolly pay extra for a seat I could atleast sit in once before I bought it.
