Might want to check rules before getting anyone. I'm not sure if they need to be certified or a certain thickness or anything with a harness bar, like a roll cage does.
just some thing to keep in mind

rules for the scca autox? meh the stuff this would be used on would be nonscca autox and road tours, if I do a scca event I'd have to check with them or just take it off. Also driving to work is crazy beautiful, driving down the hill of duluth over looking the lake..mmm And any crazy ass driving I do.

If you like it, you'll be happier spending the $30 more.. I'd stay far away from the ebay special, safety device and ebay special do not mix

Anyone that owns a Black Supercharged Cobalt driving in Brooklyn Park this morning right before 8 o clock turning onto 610? I pulled right up next to one this morning, but they got caught behind a couple cars when we all got onto 610...

That 2007 vic red SC cobalt is still for sale in Benson, MN. When I test drove it last year (feburary) it had 600 miles on it. If anyone is looking I bet it could be had for very cheap.

There's a white and silver 4 door SS/TC as well as a R. Yellow coupe SS/TC for sale at Luther on Brooklyn Blvd/694.

Also last Thursday I believe, spotted a black SS/SC go flying by me on 694, right before Zane? (overpass before 81)

P, I say dont waste your money on a harness bar for the speed...You dont even have seats with holes in them. Save that $430 for the RS which is already set up for a bar.

If I came upon a white 2 door SS/TC for a good price Id probably end up trading in...if you find one DONT tell me...all I need is more dept

I bet you could just make something out of aluminum or wood for pretty cheap...the only thing you have to worry about is if you crash you dont want your custom mount to brake off and stab you in the neck.


Go Pro Hero Wide clips.

I think the low front bumper videos looks sweet.

But this could also work too.

That made me laugh. Last Friday, I was in my SS/TC flying down that EXACT stretch of road and flew by a lot of cars. Sure it wasn't a day later?

It could've been friday. Do you have a high rise spoiler?

Went by Luther like I doevery morning, and saw a 4D SS/TC. I would kill just for an SS/TC, color, doesn't matter!

Yeah, I do have a high rise. But it wasn't in the morning. It was probably around 6:30 at night. Guess it wasn't me.

Ryze, I saw a post on another forum about a guy looking to have brake work done. He has squealing and grinding brakes on a 2001 Sunfire.

Sigh.. I'm probably going to have to work all next weekend. Why does this always happen? I don't think I'm ever going to get together with you guys.

I'll know more tomorrow.
