adhawkins Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Spa in November? Are you mad?!?!? It throws it down in September Hmmm....I'd love to, but it's doubtful to be honest. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananaman Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Re rollbar Been into Westfield today as I was a bit concerned about the rollbar comment (best be safe than sorry) They have asured me the bars (they are 2) are more than upto the job and the car was designed with F1 safty in mind. (lets hope I never get to check it out) draw a line with a pice of srting from top of engine at front of car back to topof roll bar, if your helmet is less than 2" below this get another bar made up that is at least this height. I'd also thik about a cross brace aka RAC bar. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went in september and october before, it was raining like mad on 1 half of the circuit and dry and sunny on the other. October was clear blue skies. you know you want to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(lets hope I never get to check it out) Ian, If you are genuinely concerned about the roll-over protection, then leave it with Caged for a few weeks and they'll sort it out. Caged No connection, just a happy customer.... Cheers, Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Cox Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 IIRC from the promotional photo's, the rollbar will indeed save the car, but not your head...supporting evidence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Podmore Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Fitting revised roll bars to a carbon chassis wouldn't be so easy, you can't just weld a plate in to bolt to....... it's all carbon honeycombe Great car Ian anyway, I just loved it when I saw it at the NEC all those years ago. All that carbon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
