And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

That's a tight fit, and escape, if and when it's needed, might be an issue
Yeah, safety was evidently not the first priority. Imagine spending hours in that space working extremely hard under stress. These guys were very, very dedicated! Bubbarust
sat in a buddy of mine's tunnel hull race boat one time. i commented on how the seat seemed tight. his statement put into perfect focus when he said at 130 it didn't seem tight enough! i rode in a promotional 2-seater with him once and even at a little over 90, i knew xactly what he meant.
Ejection would be speedy though.

Lotus 11. The "door" on the right is hinged at the bottom just like a Spitfire.

I'm thinking that car was designed for winning rather than escape.

ReplyDeleteMy dirt late model has a very low halo roll cage that you have to contort yourself to get into. Every year it gets harder...
