what's wrong with drag racing sideways? all the cool kids are doing it... do it.... do it....














you won't do it
me-"officer, my yellow headlights just dwarfed your spot lights. i can see fine"
officer mouth breather "well... they're just so damn annoying"
me- "so... you're going to write me a ticket because my headlights annoyed you?"

Wouldn't that make thick-framed sunglasses illegal as well? Mine are about an inch think on the sides, so I can't see shit much like a helmet.
Im not disagreeing with you btw.
are you are referring to "struka" type sunglasses, then yes, they should be illegal LOL

The 6-point lets me tandem in USD events, no?

That's the idea.

And rest assured, I plan on putting 2 5-point harnesses in the car upon completion of the roll cage project. And THAT is still miles down the road for me...I'm just trying to get my plans laid out.

No. You need a complete cage with double door bars or NASCAR bars. Def. not DD friendly.

How bout you layout your plans to GO TO EVENTS before you think about your car.

I guess my biggest question is "why" are you wasting money on something that is going to do you absolutely no good and isn't gonna be legal for when you finally want to do something that will require it.

The $$$ could be better spent on seat time at this point...unless you;re just trying to impress the ladies...then, by all means, carry on.
