All good stuff to make people aware of the options.
Everyone's situation is going to be different (due to the varying nature of our cars).
So pick through everything you read and weigh up the best options.

I personally made the decision (about 2 years ago) that my Cobra was never built or intended as a race car, last event I attended was 2014 ShelbyFest, and I have not used it on the strip since 2014 either.
Hence I have looked at other forms of motorsport, with cars built for purpose.
The roll over I had in my TrophyKart showed me the importance of the right build and right gear.

Doesn't look like much, but it landed directly on the roof, in a Cobra even with a hoop, it would have been pancaked.
