I watched a fellow loose control of his car at the launch. Back and forth he went for about 360 ft. Car went sideways, flipped over on roof and slid better than half way down the track.
The driver was safe. Safe enough to crawl out the window cursing. Why???????? Because he had a cage.
I just wanted to point out here that the cage rules are to keep you safe. As we make more power, we decrease the margin for error in driving. You'll be glad you have it if you ever find yourself doing the quarter upside down.
Mature, 42 year old safety mode is now off again,
