Fuck knows why Porsches put cages and full cages at that in road cars

Because the drivers would look even more of a cock turning up to a trackday, full sparco race suit, gloves and boots with no roll cage

Does make me laugh when you see the suited+booted parade getting into their mean machines, just to peddle them around like they are flintstones powered. We prefer to jeans, t-shirt and trainers look, it commands respect just like the radical SR 'ring team ;-)

If someone chooses to wear a racecsuit and boots along with Nomex underpants then I choose not to laugh at them but just salute their freedom to choose. Just incase one day I wish I was wearing mine.!!!!!

He who laughs last and all that!

I've always liked the fact I just roll up in jeans, trainers, t-shirt or jacket and get on with it... normally find those dressed up are either really, really quick or just slow. Its like those who feel the need to brag how fast they are and put other peoples driving down without knowing them, you always find that their not that quick.

He who shouts loudest is usually the weakest.
