Just something i was thinking about on way into work this am.....

At local Dragstrips, they require cages and other saftey features for sub 11 (?) second cars. Based on some of the postings and my own experience (70mph spin into a gravel trap 2 feet short of the tire wall) Do you guys think at some point (unfortunatly maybe when someone gets killed) there will be restrictions placed on street cars as far as saftey equipment,speed..etc... and not just separate groups based on experience? I'm afraid of a kid (nothing personal, i'll be the first to admit to be young and dumb and fearless at one point (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) ) or any body with litttle or no experience in a 300+ hp car really wiping out good in a street belted no roll caged car.....

Just a random thought :leaving:

With regards to the NCRC driver feedback, it is given from only the perspective of the driver assuming they would be the only ones involved in the hypothetical incident. This is not always the case, another car could be involved, and certainly safety workers are automatically involved if any car is on its roof, that goes double for 'verts. Personally I don't think 'verts should be with out a real rollbar on the street, I have seen too many street cars upside down. With the way folks drive you (the competent, attentive driver) are just a small part of the equation, ding-dongs are a much bigger part of it on the street.
