thanks Marty,
you have me all freaked out now, i can say your right though.
There are a boat load of cars that don't have near enough saftey equipment,
I am glad this is being brought up, there is no reason at all you should be putting a six figure show car on a road course with out safety gear unless you like playing Russian roulette.
It is not a miracle in some cases that people walk away from these accidents its called planning for the worst possible scenario. I have noticed most people don't want to even really think of this. You need to think of every part of the car as a battering ram or some blunt object that wants to kill you.
I used to think I was immortal when I was younger, then I got bitch slapped by reality and I had my first big wake up. I was riding my motor cycle 10 years ago, I broke my leg, twisted my pelvis and cracked a vertebrae.
This is all from t boning a car that ran a stop sign at 30mph.
I will say that greg nailed it down though, think of every possible thing that can go wrong and multiply it. This is the risk of racing cars,bikes, etc.
