Yeppers. At the end of the day, each individual needs to be responsible for his/her safety with the parts they do or don't put on their own car (and may ultimately be held accountable if something does go bad).

Actions speak louder than words. And louder than minimum requirements.

And this isn't just about the USCA. Go out to any open track day / HPDE deal and you will see all kinds of "under-safetied" cars and questionable setups... improperly installed cages, belts, etc etc etc. Why is why it is all up to the individuals. No one can force you to take care of yourself and be safe.

Marty, even a caveman can do it.

Just click the green youtube video icon in the row above this box when you go to post, and then take the sequence of letters/numbers/symbos that are only AFTER the = sign in the URL of the youtube video (in your case, it's "g40YatgE_CE") and insert that in between the youtube brackets in the post. Like this below.
