Message	Speeds aren't high enough to justify it. Granted a rollover at any speed is no good. But in many years of AXing I've never seen a rollover (although I have seen quite a few accidents). If you were doing a lot of track days it would be a different story. Plus if the car sees street duty a rollcage is not a good idea. "Keep the shiny side up!"
