KnifeySpoony Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 I would never drive with an unpadded [full] cage, especially sans helmet. I see it around though. Pad it and run it that way all the time imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgedavidson Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Ooh, good spot. Some of those requirements must be new. Previously I've seen all sorts of weird and wonderful vehicles on TF sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Ford Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 You drive around with a cage with no padding? Safer with no cage. Get the proper FIA stuff. It's expensive, but far more effective than the cheap foam stuff, which might protect from scuffs and scratches but won't do much in an accident.

Tiddy7 Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 One of my closest friends died when he hit his head head on the unpadded roll cage of his sports prototype car, only 300metres from his front door, please use some proper padding, accidents by their nature happen when you least expect them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerobod - near CYYC Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Also best to use a helmet rated for role cage impact, padded or not. SA2020 or equivalent rating, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
