I have never owned a real fast car and I have never driven anything faster than mid 10's, but I have been going to all kinds of tracks since I was a kid. I have seen guys break their neck with a glancing blow at 90mph(Chuck Buckman at Bridgeport Speedway) and I have seen them walk away from back flipping a top fuel dragster(Eddie Hill). Anything can happen at any time and that is a fact that no one can deny.
It always makes me nuts when guys cut corners with safety, especially on cheap stuff. Hell, look at CBRRMike, his car isn't amazingly fast or powerful, but that DS loop turned out to be a hell of a purchase didn't it.
