Default Almost makes me want to sell my car

About the time I think I have found some del sol owners with sense I see something like this



He made the seat himself and has driven on the street, of course the Harness Bar as he calls it is a joke also... and he paid someone to do it.... $300 at least he did not pay a lot.

I honestly thought the car had burned on the inside or something. That seat is downright scary.

The seat looks like a big Chewie I'd give to a dog.

That cage needs to be fixed. The main hoop is too low. It should follow the the outline of the rear section of the car. Also on that petty bar. I hope he puts some padding on it. If he loses control of the car and his arms start to fly around inside the car, he will have several fractures to the arm.

A guy posted it on Hondavision. The seat is just crazy and the roll bar isn't high enough, nor does the petty bar attach in the right place and it appears to have bends in it.

Apparantly the guy is making a show car out of it... so most of the people told him to get that bar out of there completly.... but he was impressed with his own skills at creating the seat himself...

Lately my 4 year old has been talking about "Opposite Day" and how you do and say things backwards from how you really mean them.

Looking at some of the meaningless support bars and triangulation there and lack of it in other places, I am wondering if this cage was built on Opposite Day.
