Tom, you just saved me a lot of typing and the inevitable coming to my own defense after I was ready to post nearly exactly what you just did.

And I agree 100%... you're probably in for some fun 3 days from now.

At least they have disclaimers on their website and are not selling this as a bolt-in "roll" cage or item specifically intended for occupant safety. It remains to be seen how many consumers will either heed and/or overlook that disclaimer... it's a mighty important "one-liner" and I'm confident Bret & Co. will receive at least one irate call from an ill-informed customer who is upset his "roll cage" didn't pass tech inspection at the track.

At least I don't see shoulder harness hardpoints or a harness crossbar on the pictures on their website... things could get very interesting in the liability department in that case; I'm guessing the absence of a harness bar is not an accident.
