i have seen an s2000 flipped upside down and it was held up by the a-frame, the rear rollbars were not even touching the floor. i believe there is a roll bar in there. the thread i am talking about is the one where the guy didn't see the black ice. in other words, it will hold.

Hi thanks,

By the black ice post do you mean this one?

If so that sure looks like a Miata to me.
