Yeah my local track is 2 hours away. Their yearly membership is way to much for me. I might give it a go one day tho.

I wonder what kind of permits you'd need to get to hold a "defensive driving education program" on that abandoned airfield by you.Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.Comment

Charlie, anyone, has there been anyone that's figured out a good way to mount a grab bar for passengers to hold onto during autoX? The "pretty little jelly bean" festiva is a big hit with ladies wanting to go in a "less intimidating" car...
btw, second at the last event in SMF

Im thinkin either somethjng like this rivited through that pinch weld that the door seals against. Except a 90degree bend on the metal bit with the strap near the top side so it doesnt bent that pinch weld too much.Originally posted by Hatch View PostCharlie, anyone, has there been anyone that's figured out a good way to mount a grab bar for passengers to hold onto during autoX?

Or this. With something to keep it from swinging while your not using it.
Nice job on the second place!

I think a member here had a dash mounted grab bar too. It was awhile back. Racing seats with proper harnesses are the best solution.Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege.

The one that is covered up by that ridiculous automatic seat belt?Originally posted by FestYboy View PostNo car too fast !Comment

Yes, but that's an easy fix since the points are just inside the top edge of the cover.Trees aren't kind to me...

Whew, thanks for the great suggestions! While I'd love to have racing seats, I tried to fit some in and they're waaay too big for this car. I see two threaded holes where the OSH goes - I'm thinking a webbing handle hard mounted to those would be perfect!1991 Beastiva L BP autoX'erComment

The factory style are robust as they have a metal strap moulded in.
KIA, Ford, Toyota etc I've found handles with the right mounting pitch in the you-pull-itNo car too fast !Comment

I have Miata Armrests in my car that have built in grab handles that allow your passenger to pull themselves into the door. They even bolt directly into the Festiva door, with the addition of a clip in a factory hole.Originally posted by Hatch View PostCharlie, anyone, has there been anyone that's figured out a good way to mount a grab bar for passengers to hold onto during autoX?

Took second in SMF yesterday, only missed first by a tenth!
This club also does rallycross - if I just throw my 13" tires on instead of my 15" autox wheels, would that be sufficient for some dirt action?1991 Beastiva L BP autoX'erComment
