If I were to build a drag car with a MINI, yes a rollbar would be on my list.

Umm Maybe you don't undedrstand UBKyoung. but this car is stripped to the bareness of the car, if the metal somehow fractures and causes human damage without a rollcage when flipping, odds are that you are dead. Chad, BTW I go to the local dragstrip with my Mini, just haven't been able to with my mods yet since I moved and the track is closed now. Oh well.

13-14 No Fret?
Are you serious? This is where most of the people get their sponsors! Heck I alsmost got a sponsor when I ran a 16 sec quarter! I refused it because I lived in my parents house and still was in high school.Nowadays, if i could find a sponsor, then heck, I'd take it on first sight.
