Don't fool yourself into thinking that direct impacts with plastic covered sheet metal surfaces such as dashes, doors, and A-pillars are any safer than properly placed roll bar tubing with the correct padding and five point harnesses.
I re-engineered the seat brackets to lower the seats for adequate clearance and we ALWAYS wear the five point harnesses to resist vertical movement.
Needlepoint is dangerous also. Those needles are sharp and the yarn might accidentally get wrapped around your fingers and interrupt circulation.  |
Proper design and anticipation for the unknown is the key to building a safe cage. Im sure if we included sewing needles in our custruction we would also include a thimble large enough to fit over our heads.
