Street/SCCA Roll Bar for your 79-85 7 for Christmas. Oh yeah!

Isn't this what you need for your street racer? Use Simpson 4 pt belts. SCCA legal for entry level racing. If any of you are interested in my NEW roll bar please email me at roedeka1@memorialhealth.com. Yeah baby, custom built by Autopower for the 7 - new in bubble wrap.

The only thing that's legal for is auto-x, not racing. Auto-x isn't racing, it's driving around cones in a parking lot.

That's cold, I've done both and the skill level in autocrossing is very high even if the speeds aren't, not everyone can afford a dedicated race car and autocrossing is fun in your street legal car so dont be so much of an elitist and be assured autocrossing IS racing, the fastest elapsed time wins, and trophys are awarded.

Autocrossing is one of the most technically challanging forms of racing there is to try to master. So much happens so fast. I think it is the best fun for the money. Road racing is pretty fun, but it is all about out-braking another driver.

And people wonder why there's a huge gap in the SCCA growing between autocrossers and road racers....

Thats just uncalled for BS, why even comment like that, if you wanted to **** off about 70,000 people per weekend, you're doing a great job. Knucklehead.

When was the last time two cars went out nose to tail and tried to see who could get to the finish line first at an autocross? Never. That's why it's an autocross, it's a race against the clock not another car.

Funny how I'm causing a massive rift between autocross and road racing... Oh wait, I'm the guy working on a cooperative event with road racing and auto-x on the same site on the same weekend.

Jesus. Lighten up, people.

um bracket drag racing is real racing and you arent racing against someone.. you are racing against your time. rally racing is racing and you dont race nose to tail.. you race against the clock.. alot of racing is against time not another racer.

Ok, I’m attaching a photo & description from the manufacturer. It’s a “race” roll BAR not a roll CAGE. Hope this clears things up. And it is bolt in-even comes w/ the bolts (in the package in my photos). I have the same bar in my 240Z w/ a Simpson 5 pt harness & Recaro seat & it's quite nice. Both have the optional harness mount tube. $300.00 plus shipping.
