[Double Venom]

To all CR owners and others:
I hope Jerry and I didn't confuse anyone on the roll bar issues. First let me say I have seen many (to many) Cobras roll from Autocrossing to the Run N Gun. I have never seen a roll bar fail-period. (Good for us). The only real problem and I know they have fixed it was a SuperFormance Cobra at Run N Gun & it could have happened to almost any Cobra out there but it happened to be theirs.

The gentlemen flipped his Cobra with a 3-point roll bar resulting in a very, very serious fire. This gentlemen was burned severly and required months of recovery in a hospital.
Basically the Cobra flipped, was held up by the 3-point bar but that makes ALL similar Cobras do the same thing...they slide with the right rear fender grinding on the pavement, in this case it ripped off his Racing OEM (On some manufacturers standard equipment) Lemans fuel cap allowing all the gas to run out immediately.

I will tell you SPF instantly fixed this problem by using a screw in gas cap that fit under the Lemans cap to avoid any other disasters like this from happening, or at least making it extremely unlikely.

The point is if you have a three point bar and a right rear fender mounted Lemans gas cap retrofit with an internal gas cap! This is for your safety and I think should be mandatory for all the gas caps.
I'm proud to say I/my company was the first Cobra known to use a screw in cap under the Lemans cap-even befor the mentioned fire!)

As far as size of the roll bar tubing Jerry is right, his type material meets all NHRA,SCCA,IHRA, and Autocrossing requirements*. Ed and I choose to go a little heavier with a new mounting technique is all. (*for cars running 11.00 or more seconds at any NHRA or IHRA event.)

The name of the game has been and always will be, "Be safe out there!".
