Otherwise the driver might not have been walking away...
Around here you to work with the broomstick test the hardtop can be added, but only if its bolted on. Not that it would have changed the ending, but I am puzzled that the hardtop was allowed without being bolted on. Although the NASA Miata Challenge thread made me wonder about rules interpretations with track orgs anyway.
MSR - Cresson allows you to go on track with a hardtop or STYLE BAR. I think it is stupid to not require a FUNCTIONAL safety device for an open top car, but I have used that same rule to run on the track a few times.
i think the hardtop was bolted on it just came off from the impact...
This really reminds me to make sure I have all the safety equipments in my miata before I do another track day.
If you check clubroadster where this was posted originally this question came up and you can see in the video he is using the latches, not the bolt plates.Quote:
