I'm always amazed when I see such an inadequate roll bar being used on a track beast. I suppose that I'm used to a more safety (read litigation) conscious society, but that little 'ol hoop isn't likely to help in a rollover of any consequence.

Nuts... they beat me to it... It sould get the weight down to around 800lbs. Very impressive, and in my mind makes for an excellent BEC application.
