As Jeff said the usual left steer roadster had a frame that was a system of hoops with the cage sitting on top. Since they were off center it appears that in crashes they were getting twisted off, along with the driver's head and upper body. Even the well built left steer roadsters, Cage hoop running all the way to the lower frame rails, is required to put in the little gussets. There is daylight and dark difference in the center steer alterteds and left steer roadsters. The new Vette bodies are way more aero and the old 27's are like a wing flying upside down. Bad areo. They have no place in TS if you ask me. That is just an accident waiting to kill someone. Yes, I feel I can speak as an authority on left steer roadster. I'm a left steer roadster owner and a survivor of another one that crash @ 154 mph. (Vinny's Comp World champ car)
