So much for the one run for glory next year. From reading that, I wont be getting on the track at all. I was hoping to go into the “rollcage needed” times a few times before I was pulled off.

8

thats fawking bulshit !!! i really hope that its not true ! what about nhra ? im confused… spangs right more shit is gonna be taken off the track an on the streets way to go IHRA !!! dumb fucks

just means cars will be safer with cages. ppl spend more money on other things then this. what is a cage like 300 bucks or so. so your telling me that isnt worth the security of knowing youll be safe in a crash? yes things can still go wrong but i would rather have that chance having a cage in a Ttop car or vert. plus cage gives you strength

She never rides in it anyway… everytime i feel like taking it out, she is working.

It’s alot easier to get in the passenger side with a rollbar than it is the drivers side anyway, so she shouldnt have too much of a problem
