Prodrift Ireland- 2012 Rules & Regulations

[tweek]

I don't see any problem with that cage to be honest, the term "dash dodger" is normally associated with the type of cage that has 4 or 5 bends in the a-pillar bar which makes an S shape around the dash,

the type of cage you used as an example has only 2 bends in the front leg and would be fine as long as it has door bars.

Nice one thanks for the reply now if we were only aloud to keep our roof lining i would be delighted getting in to car early in the morning with condensation dripping off the roof is a pain in the ass

what are ye expectin an army tank to go in ur door this whole cage thing is a complete load of bollox. double door bars sure u dont need them in a rally car that goes thru a wood at 100 mph never mind a drift car that goes around a car park. its all just a money racket . and as for dash dodgers id rather that than a weld in cage that some sledger welded in in his shed . there is a reason why all these companys who make these cages have to pay huge insurances on thier products.and as for the mike fitz accident if anyone noticed the cage wasnt the problem the seat clearly shifted long before the cage moved. tbh common sense is not cumin into this at all ,all the talk is bout cages what about fire and all is specified is a 1l handheld fire extinguisher or whatever which tbh wouldn put out a cigarette if they are so concerned about safety they should be making plumbed in extinguishers mandatory as would prob be a better safety initiative than all this bullshit on cages either that or run fia rules which is expensive but would eliminate any indiscretions on rules
jus my 2 cents

Army tank, maybe not but the next time your watching formula d have a look at what the back of an 86 does to matt powers door in the opening credits!!

Closer to home see the japspeed skylines crashing into each other in silverstone

I take your points on fire extinguishers and home brew cages though. A 1kg wouldn't cool my arse after a hot curry

SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU CLOWN...! The reason Mike Fitz's floor came in on him because the death dodger as so far back...! If the cages was a proper weld in the cage would have been far more forward and protected him...!

Iv never seen such a pack of crying fuckers in all my life...! The rules are the rules lads and in any motorsport the 1st priorty is to protect the driver...! Why wait around till someone gets seriously injured or dies and the decide to chage the rules...! At the end of the day there looking out for you the driver...!

You don't have to do prodrift and if you don't like the rules then don't do it...! Even doh there a bit late good job on prodrifts behalf for steeping up the game...! Heres to a great seasons drifting now shut up and get on with it...!
