The front passenger seatbelt is very very very slow to retract back. Is there any common faults with this that can be repaired (I recall our old Mazda which frequently did this and there was an easy trick to resolve) or is it time for a new seatbelt?

Just one trick I have seen before.
Pull it entirely out and clean it with a damp cloth (both sides as it were). They can get 'gunked' up with dust and the likes. It may just free it up to reel back in properly.
Good luck  "Track day running - Don't put your foot back on the accelerator until your absolutely sure you don't have to take it off again"
