You do realize that by the time Michael is 5, he's going to be kicking all of our butts, right? That is, assuming he doesn't already.

I trust you have your top straps as close to horizontal as possible? Doesn't look like it in this picture...

They would appear to be mounted to the harness bar of his AP 4-pt race rollbar.

Good call Chris, yes I have the AutoPower roll bar. I love it! Feels great to be strapped in.

How is the chassis stiffness? Very noticeable?

Yes John i did notice the difference. The car felt more stable. I will be adding a rear strut bar soon, not sure that I need it now, but it was ordered before the bar came in. I am finished modd'n the Acura, only thing I'll be buying for a while is brakes and race tires, and most important Track days ! I noticed a big difference with the TE37s. I was able to hit 129-130 mph in the straight before braking for turn 1, maybe it was the fact that i was taking turn 10 better, not sure..... Got a little hot a few times in 1, but it felt nice...

LOL...

Tell him about the time you got <u>really</u> hot with <u>cold</u> <u>tyres</u> on the bloody <u>warmup</u> <u>lap</u>!!
I knew it was only a matter of time before someone mentioned this. LOL, yes it is true, I spun during the warm-up lap. Cold, and over inflated tires really dont work well. I was going through turn 9, about to pit, thinking i wasn't going fast enough have any trouble, well i turned in, then turned in again to head over to the right side to go into the pits, and the car spun... A little dirty , but other than that everything was ok

Im still able to teach him a few things at this point, but it wont be long before im asking him for pointers

Yes, I really enjoy the AP bar, word of advice, make sure you have a girlfriend well before you decide to get the bar....
