saw a segment on the news about the 2012 requirent for vehicles to have anti-rollover potection. The technology uses braking and steering control to reduce the chance of rollover. do you think this will kill autocrossing?

I absolutely believe that mandatory traction control/rollover protection won't do a single thing to hurt participation in autocross...
even in 2032, when non-tcs/rp cars are no longer affordable, people will still race the latest and greatest POS that automakers are providing... if everybody has the same tcs/rp system, then the playing field is even, and i'll still try my best to be faster than you... but, i really hope that by 2032, automobiles are quickly becoming obsolete, because i am sick-to-the-death of sharing roads with disrespectful, no-skill, assclowns. |
