So the options as I've figured them out and confirmed with Jim are:
1. Install roll bar protection for the passenger side
2. Use a car that has passenger protection for the ride alongs and then change to your cobra for solo work.

Scott,

I really want to drive the CObra on the track. I have also e-mailed NASA and no-go until I get a roll bar for the passenger. I have a dedicated autocross car but I never bothered to raise the top speed limiter 'cause I only use it for Solo II. I may shoot for the NASA event at Roebling Road in September. I should have time to get the Cobra track ready by then.

Mike
