Default Re: Excessive braking

I will be putting a roll bar in my U/SA just for the peace of mind. Even at mid track those cars are going WAY faster than me. It could get UGLY fast. And I will be racing at some local events too. So....Better safe than sorry.

Furthermore, if you think this will never happen...well....the CUBS did win the World Series........
Those 8.50 second Stockers are part of the motivation for me to install a roll bar right now into my Q/SA Thunderbird.

I am only trapping 106 mph, but if I were to get rear ended by one of the 160 + mph missiles...
