Rex_Kelway Forums Junkie Location: Adelaide Registered: May 2002	Re: Why do people get roll cages? Tue, 16 November 2004 13:27 Rex would definately get one without hesitation. For those who havent seen the testing video: http://www.hansdevice.com/sled_01_quick_150.wmv The scary thing is to watch a fierce impact from an in car view. Rex remembrs seeing Harri Rovanpera slide into a tree during a round of the WRC. Watching it frame by frame, his head moves from the head rest to within an inch of the steering wheel in a single frame (which Rex is assuming was 24fps?). The forces are huge!, given that its his neck taking a fair portion of the loads make it even more scary. Mabye oldcorollas could give us an idea of the speeds/accelaration involved, Rex cant be arsed... Motorsport is very dangerous, deaths (or worse) happen all the time. The best you can do is minimise the risk as best as possible. Rex is reminded of Tyler's line in Fight-Club... "An exit door procedure at 30,000ft, Ahhh, the illusion of safety" Rex [Updated on: Tue, 16 November 2004 13:32] [Report message to a moderator]
