Just spoke to a guy at MIR. He advised that if you are running 13.99 or faster...you must have a hardtop on ! Or a roll bar. So much for cruising down to Budscreek *******....Bring on the vettes !!!!!!!

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm...I was thinking that the hard top might just
help a little in the 1/4 with wind resistance. However, I don't see it as a major safety item...I suppose anything will help, but a ~ 10 pound SMC "hard" top?? I don't think it will be too hard if I am sliding down the road upside down :-( ....

Hope we never find out!

I don't think I can fit under my stock hardtop with my helmet on. I'll bet that they if they make you have a hardtop they will make you have the curtains on too.
I was thinking of coming over to make a few runs, that would be fun. It looks like I'll may just drop by as a spectator.

I just had a thought, they might think we have a roll bar. I mean it looks like one, right?

Actually, I am not sure if Vettes can run under 13.99.

Hey Lee...

A little OT, but how did you like the Diablo? Are they as rough as the countach was? I haven't been in a real lambo in 10 years atleast hehe

I know this is a stretch, but can't you just borrow someone else's hard top while at the race? I'm sure there will be several there.
