Default Roll bars and 5 point harness Do work !

This happend to my friend Brian (AKA "RUNAMUCK") this moring on the way to Knots berry farm for the ford show. Got on the onramp alittle bit too hot and lost the car rolled down the hill and hit the gardrail. look at how the rollbar keep the roof from coming down on the driver and his passenger. He said the 5 points keep them in the seats, they were hanging in the car when it went over. Just go's to show that safety stuff pays off !!!

Got a shot from the News on sunday I'll post the video as soon as it's readdy !
