Join NASA & seek out NASA HPDE's! We have no problem with convertibles! (It has to have a rollbar & you must pass the "broomstick" test.)

It's almost as if the clubs are losing sight of them being HPDEs and not RACE DAYS. I thought the idea is to encourage people to come out and Learn to Drive in a safe environment.. just because I have a 'vert, does that mean I should be denied a chance to become a better driver? Sure, I get the liability thing and all but still... Dunno about you guys, but I'd rather roll a SPEC Miata with a cage than a hardtop car without one!!! OH well, guess it's just one more reason to go to "a group of guys rent a track" type HPDE where you know the organizer personally. :) Wallyman Inactive hide details for Russ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Russ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Russ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/02/2008 11:10 AM To Miata Power List <[email protected]> cc Subject Re: Track Day 60s style Gotta love the drop top Beetle with a full load of passengers near the end. If it had rolled like the others... Something to be said for the relaxed attitude of those days. Not that I'd put myself in that sort of danger, but we've gone too far in the opposite direction lately. The local BMW clubs don't allow any sort of convertible at track days any more, regardless of whether it has a cage, harnesses, race seats, etc. :-( Might be a national CCA thing, though local clubs might override it. Russ There are 10 types of people, those who understand binary and those who don't.
