now notice the coolster seen here, the bars are much much thicker and there are also many more braces and cross supports, also notice the 4 point racing harness that holds you in the seat more securely then a lap/shoulder belt can. when you compare these two pictures its pretty clear that the helix is not something you would want to roll over in.


pretty easy to see in these two pics isnt it?
yeah you do have a good point but i do a lot of drifting and flat track so its not a main requirement for front brakes lol. but its also safer because its a 1 seater. thats why im welding a few really thick bars to help this is a concept coolster its coming some time in 2010 and you can see a huge difference. but still vert thick bars.
