Hey everyone... Visiting from LIFBA/ Fastlsx.com.

Do you know if a vert needs a roolbar? Thanks...

even on track days, a rollbar is more then likely needed for a convertable. 95% sure

:drive: Im also visiting from LIFBA looking for 2 spots in the road coarse if still available!

Hell yea were going to have some islander's on the track with us this is going to be and INSANE DAY! Hope my car is running by then

anyone know what the helmet spects are? need to get one.

probabaly SA2000 or newer. dont think an M helmet will pass.

OK, got some clarifications.

Verts will need a roll bar. I am going to get the specifics and post them up.

Truck and SUV owners, sorry but we won't be able to allow them.

I need one more spot for tim-1987 Turbo Regal

no suv's??? what about cbrrmike? i wanted to see that ss rip up the corners :(

Yea, we did too. Rules are rules though....

eh, maybe ill just spend some money and set the ta up for a road course for a little while

welp... count me out since I am sans roll bar.

g

count me out then

Yeah I'll have to bring the GTA then :cry:

There isnt anyway around the vert rule? These are factory spec cars and it isnt like there will be bumping or anything.

its a NJ state rule. any and all convertables need a rollbar. regardless of other cars on track.

Maybe I'll catch up with you guys on a straight line event.

you should update the first post with helmet and vert rules as well as any others you come across :) i need to get a helmet

I wonder why they won't allow trux? I could see not allowing lifted 4 X 4s with big knobby tires or such, but trux like Mike's or say a Syclone or Typhoon are made to be able to take turns...

Even for novices, the cornering loads and G forces are easily high enough to pose a serious risk for SUVs, trucks and vehicles with a lot of mass and relatively high roll centers. That's why most groups and tracks do not allow them even in modified form.

Stock 4th Gen F-bodies have surprising amounts of body roll and brake dive on road courses- especially with OEM suspension and ride height. This isn't because they're bad cars, it's just a matter of the cornering forces acting on the relatively heavy mass of the car and the grip level of large sticky tires.

It's all about the physics.

Makes sense.

^ ^ ^ hahaah UBG! ^ ^ ^

Are there any restrictions on T-Top cars? Or is it just convertibles there worried about?
