hotrod Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 I posted this in Indy results & was asked to post it here We got clobbered one hour in on Sunday. We built the car with safety in mind. It doesn't seem like much but I built a foot box around the drivers legs & feet. One of our veteran drivers Dennis Neel was in the car. He has some soreness on his right shoulder from the shoulder belt & Hans device and remembers hitting the inside of the foot box with his feet & legs but suffered no injury's. All our guys have to go to work on Monday. IndyCar, NASCAR, NHRA, Super V8's & others have this in the rule book & its easy to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ross2004 Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 Don't forget your knee knocker on the steering column (or otherwise). I hobbled for weeks after a car wreck in high school from banging my knees together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Magic Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 Tip for next time....stuff foam between the door bars and the door, or move the door bars out to the door skin. Keeps the body repairs down when you get hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
