How much is safety worth?

How much is safety worth to us. After reviewing Ken Etter's pictures from his accident, I've come to the conclusion that a freak accident can set us back or even worse cut our lives short. I read what Angelo Ditocco had to say in another thread on what he wish NHRA should allow for his Super-Stocker wish list, are things to do were mostly for safety related items. I've decided to go with a 12 points roll cage in my stocker instead of the lighter 6points mounts, why take a chance and I'm sure the extra strength won't hurt. I know that in my previous race cars that safety sometime took a back seat to performance. I know I'll pay a little more attention to checking and rechecking for malfunctioning parts in the future.CR
