Viper Days, Roe Supercharger, & Rollbar

[SUN RA KAT]

I'm not sure I can get a roll bar in my Viper and still have room for me @ 6'5" tall if the roll bar takes up any space behind the seat - I have to have my seat back ALL the way back in order for me to barely be able to fit in with a helmet. And that's with the 2" seat lowering kit!

I'd like to be able to do Viper Days again and other events, but most of them realise Yellow Vipers are faster, and that's before they find out about the Roe Supercharger, and once they find out about the Roe S/C they ALL want me to have a roll bar.

So, are there any roll bars out there that take up less than 1/2" between the back of the seat and the gas tank?

Sun,

We have the perfect roll bar for your GTS. Your seat travel is not inhibited in any way, nor is your visibility.

I have customers who, believe it or not, are taller than you are, with no interference with the roll bar. You can even lower your seat without roll bar interference. You will also have the use of your factory seat belts and 5 way harness sets. Keep in mind though that at NHRA events, the roll bar is not recognized without 5 way harnesses on the drivers side seat.

Feel free to contact me as I have them in stock and ready to ship.

P.S. I have a bar shipping to Roe for another one of his customers.....what a coincedence!

Tom -

Thanks. I got the BTR Rollbar page saved in "My Favorite Places" now. I probably will need to wait a while to order it, since I work as a substitute school teacher and there's a summer break coming up.

Are the Yellow 5-points in Viper Race Yellow?

You do not want the Autoform Rollbar! Well made but I lost 2" of travel. At 6'5" I took it back out!

I have yellow 6-point TeamTech belts in my car which pretty closely match the car's yellow. You can get them from JonB, but you can find them a bit cheaper elsewhere.

LOL McGuire. You didn't waste any time with the Sebring pit avatar and turn 13 pic. LOL

Sebring again in July??? I'm in for sure!

Actually Vipermad threw that avatar out there (thank you TR) when I whined about being labeled "Enthusiast", although I did do the turn 13 one on the NFV site.

In June I'll be in Kentucky for the NHRA Historic Hot Rod reunion (my friend is driving a 7-second rail powered by a 1949 flathead, and I'm towing it up there for him), but just about an hour ago we were talking about Sebring in July, then Road Atlanta in September, then Sebring again in December.

However, I'm starting to think just for the sake of variety, I might want to skip Sebring in July and do Moroso in August, instead.

I'll also probably sign up Sherry with SAFE if I go the Moroso route.
