> With that response, I’m not going to rehash the whole caging a DD is absurdly unsafe…but you have some clear issues with the structure. The forward hoops are very poorly designed, and not nearly as sturdy as they should be, they don’t appear to be able to withstand a rollover. Most of the instructors (which you’ll be required to have for your first several track sessions) would not sit in something designed like that. I’ve watched that happen a few times… Secondly, the instructor must have the same harness and seating arrangement as the driver. That means no bucket and 5pt for you and stock seat for them. My car is built for the track and never sees the street, but I had to follow the very same rules as you will. What tracks do you plan on driving?

Ok then so what your telling me is that Dyingwish (A seasoned Autocross and Road Race Driver) has no clue what he’s talking about. Ok thanks

But this is the worst one your telling me that Rusty240det doesnt know what he is talking about?!?!?! You better do some research on who he is, what he has done and what he does. Ill give you a start Hybridynamics he used to own it.

Learn your fucking Place n00b
