Default Re: DRAG RACING at Moroso (Palm Bch Fl) Was nicely told my racing was over

NASAProRacing and SCCA have issues with the roll bars in the Crossfire as well, but they tend to be a bit more lenient, which, when you think about it, is sort of stupid. Your chances of a roll over on a road course are far greater than on a drag strip.

I've been to the street legal drags here in SoCal more times than I've been to road course events, and I've seen far more vehicles go off course when turns are involved. A few roll overs included.

For you guys who are just taking your Crossfires to the drag races, you really should try a NASA HPDE day on a road course. Instead of a few seconds of fun you get 20 minute sessions. Drag racing is nice, but the feeling you get from heavy side g-forces, hard braking, snaking through the esses at speed, or nailing that decreasing radius corner just right is a real rush. And the Crossfire is just awesome at it.
