Message I have a little firsthand experience when it comes to rollovers...


Note that the roofline expanded once the car was flipped
back onto its wheels...it was a little more cramped in there while it was upside down.

As you can see, there is an abundant lack of headroom in
that slicktop Z (i was in the passenger seat). I know for
a fact (and my neck pain for a few weeks can prove it) that
had my head and body not contorted into a funky direction
that i would have been hurt much much worse than I
already was.

Do not ever think for a second that you won't ever crash or
roll a car over, it can and does happen. If you are held upright
by a harness and the roof is crushed your skull will crush,
your eyes will pop out, and all kinds of painful and horrific shit
will follow.

BTW...some of the post may not apply but at least this will
appear when/if someone searches "rollcages" or "harnesses"
