That's a pretty serious system you've got going there! One question though, are the ones going to the roof latches connected to anything?

They are blted to the roof latches and it uses the strength of the factory rollover protection (ie the window surround is much stronger than you realise)

In real life this thing looks awesome.
How are you going with the computer stuff mate?

Dann/quote]

Computer stuff is stalled at the moment
I'm finding it hard to justify spending $3000+ and a fair amount of trouble to go a couple of seconds a lap faster
At the moment I think I might just stick with what I've got and maybe a bit of tinkering
On the other hand if I was to come across a turbo setup at a very good price then I might be tempted," people might fly "

While on the subject I would like to thank those who took the time to reply to my previous post.
The responce was much more than I expected
On the subject of the brace I had to set the rear shocks 2 clicks softer as it had alot more oversteer than before.
it seemed to take any twist out of the shell

Thanks again olboy
