Lots of good info.


Thanks for the info!

I've decided not to cut corners and will be installing a 4-point bar and 5-point harnesses over the winter when I put race seats in.

I'm not sure giving the instructor a 4point qualifies as equivalent protection. Honestly, i'd scrap that 4 point, its about worthless.

I'm not sure what I'm driving.
Maybe an ITR in DS.

Good Call, Kendt 8)

Also, be ab-so-lute-ly certain that the roll bar is constructed using the appropriate DOM tubing regarding O.D. and wall thickness. Check the GCR for the spec.
