So what kind of road racing do you think your going to get into with out a roll cage? I wouldn't even think about going door to door with out alot of saftey gear. If your talking about lapping then keep an eye out for other people and try not to be a pylon that gets in the way.

Street Mod if you're talking auto-x.

If you're talking road racing, gooooooood luck. With that many mods and NO suspension work you're going to do horribly. Even talking auto-x you're really going to have a hard time being competitive. The Grand-Am Cup cars got stripped this year. GMP found out that Stage 2+ was too much power to be competitive, the cars wouldn't handle (even with full coilovers + much more suspension work). So this year they were stripped down to stock, they even took the Corsa exhaust off and went back to stock catback.
