si, and its adjustable too, so you shouldnt have any road clearance problems. make sure to install it within 6" of the front u joint, so it will be track legal.

ocbaud · 03-29-2004, 02:08 AM

those are expensive

apstguy · 03-29-2004, 02:16 AM

$26 too expensive? This coming from a person with a brand new engine?

I got a brand new DOT approved helmet off of Ebay for $35 shipped to the house. That's not expensive.

Eric,
Make sure you get an SA00 rated helmet, as SA90's are going out at the end of this year. (Which means I need a new helmet, grrr!)

79BIG10 · 03-30-2004, 06:57 PM

I thought you only needed a loop and a helmet if you ran slicks? You planning on running slicks at the track?

gldevall · 03-30-2004, 11:26 PM

A helmet is required when you break into the 13's.
