AusAnt Turbo Noob Donating Members 331 Member For: 11y 6m 23d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 30/01/13 09:00 AM Share Posted 30/01/13 09:00 AM Devils Advocate: Is it possible, if people make too much of a stir and the issue becomes too public. They may be concerned about making a decision that appears to the uneducated as them skimping on safety? Ant PS: Just a concern, would love to make it more affordable and easier to access. Would be a dream of mine to get down the 1/4 mile in a competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to put through examples of cars that have run 10.999 or lower who now require a cage to run at WSID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
