To each his own, but I pull no punches when it comes to safety.

You've got all the bases covered, David. I am taking the risk of choosing the street car look at the expense of safety. I'll have well under 300hp, but that's still enough to get the car upside-down if I get crazy. I'm planning on enjoying brisk accelleration in a straight line, but that's it. No triple-digit velocities or high-speed manouvers. My prime worry is having no neck protection in a low-speed collision. With nothing protecting my head, I won't be able to forget to be careful.
