[LEADERS EDGE]

I agree with Billy as well. You are never going to be 100% protected. Me personally; I like seeing people race safely, but many of the people who say that racing is dangerous and it is what it is, wouldn't get in a car without a cage.

If you announced at a drivers meeting that in order to race you had to cut the cage off, put on a tee(only),strap in with a rope, and wear a Cromwell;there would be alot of tough talkers loading up. Hell most guys can't race without an arm guard let alone no power steering and pump brakes and fuel.

There would be some guys left for sure, but you would sure see who is serious and who is not.

All of this tough talk is just that. It's just racing and many of the "tough guys" on here don't race for a living. They have a 9-5 and family to look after. Just go race, protect yourself and be smart.

After the one thread I had looked up a photo that I thought to be recent of Arins' car and it had a net and padding. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be the case. I feel terrible for her and her family because I, like many others on here, know what it is like racing with a family member. I wish them the best and I'm sure that she will be able to tell us about someday soon.
