do you REALLY NEED one?

quick release failure write off:

Yes I do. Even if we ignore the face that I am 17 stone and struggle to get in ! It also does not have an ignition key or steering lock. Hence my post are these any good? A lot of race cars use quick release without them failing. I think the picture that you posted is more of a testimony to the benefits of a full cage.

It's the splined style that seems to cause problems as it is easy to think it is engaged when it is not. If I really had to use one I'd either get the tilting style or a ball bearing one (they spin until engaged) http://www.plays-kool.co.uk/acatalog/WorksBell.html has both styles shown.

Thanks for the reply. They cost a fortune ! Which I am sure you would not mind paying if you were driving along with the steering wheel in your hands and not attached to the car. All things are relative!
