    Big Smile I find the Level 1,2 &3 Rollbar requirements amusing (Find VERY OLD GCR, cut/paste, find a little newer GCR, cut/paste ..... LOL ERW's allowed, 4130 is undersized and Silicon Bronze welding makes an appearance!!!!

    BTW.... a little extra incentive is in the works for everyone that runs the PDX's this year. Someone will be driving out of GIR thinking about their new Custom 4 point Rollbar they're going to have built and installed

    Re: New Years Resolution - sign up for a PDX Event!

    I admittedly skimmed through the 2007 rules, so I could be wrong in my interpretation, but does section 12 mandate the use of a minimum 5-point harness? (Not that it's a dumb idea.)

     Thanks,
    Paul

    PS: Nice incentive, Scott!

    The current TT rules are for all levels of Time Trial events - PDX is a level 1 and you do not need a 5 point harness to drive your street hardtop car.

    The NEW AND IMPROVED rules (being written as we speak) will split them out by levels and hoepfully will be a lot less confusing.
