Default For those going to 26

This was at the Dragon a couple of weeks ago, I guess.

Solstice wreck

Be safe, all!

The S2000 is much stronger than that. My friend from Delphi was here last week for the race, and asked why the S2000 was more money. After a drive, and an explanation about the reinforced windshield, and roll bars, he was a believer in the Honda product.

Amazing. That could sell the added cost of an S2000 right there.

I saw a pic somewhere on this forum of an s2k on its top in the middle of a road, and the windshield pillars were supporting the weight of the car with little or no collapsing.

I've also seen pictures of three s2000's with the windshields almost completely collapsed. Let's not judge one occurance with the Solstice just yet.

There is a thread in the Dragon forums that talked about this...


The best way not to prove/disprove the strength of the S2000 is not to have something like this to happen..


Here's to a safe weekend

Everybody be safe. We don't need any more attention from popo either. Let's keep the caravan to 26 under 95mph

I hope you are in my group Brent. Because we will be driving at no faster than 55mph.
