The group i track day with, PBOC, is requiring roll protection for s2000 this year. My s2000 is my daily driver. What can i get for it? Suggestions what/where to buy?
Thanks

That's a bad thing? Time for some homework. There's no magic bullet that we are hiding from you. I looked at roll bar options and designs for a couple years before I was sure of what I wanted.

It all depends on whether you just want something to pass inspection for some particular organization or whether you have some requirements of your own.

Typed a long reply and lost it. arrrgh!! What did you end up with Mike?
Who has what and what do they recomend for a daily driver? Thats what i am after.
Anyway i read a little bit, cusco 4 point at $338 from Vivid racing is an option. I would like to track day my car at Vir and they require scca legal. What is scca legal and How much would that cost? Is it worth it? My car is a daily driver wont be a race car. Just gotta pass PBOC, group i track with. I have done 5 other track day events with them but in 08 my car needs roll over protection. Someone has to call me back to tell me what that is.

I had one custom-built, after I made the decision the car would no longer be a street car.

Cusco is not SCCA-legal. Sounds like you want the Harddog bar.

Hard Dog.

Installation is time consuming. You will have to trim the stock plastic roll hoop covers, the panels on either side of the rear tray, the plastic behind the doors, and behind the seats. Pretty major pita, I think I invested at least 20 hours in the installation!

Very happy with the result, though. I could email pics if you want.

I think harddog and custom is the only thing out there right now.
all the cusco crap is just that.
anything that bolts into the S2k is for looks.
