LOL!
Alex, if you take your airbag out I'll drive down there and kick your ass. I know where you live. I pay attention just as much as you, and that's why I ran into a pole I didn't even see...
There's no arguing with the safety an airbag provides. It's been proven. You can't even argue that they aren't safe if you're sitting 3 inches away from the wheel because, again, it's already been proven that you'll be injured airbag or no airbag in that situation.
You can go ahead with the harnesses. But watch those one-piece racing seats because they often block a driver's vision to the sides and they're so tight you can't even turn around to reverse.
And never put a roll cage in a street car. Crumple zones are there for a reason, and a hardcore rollcage completely negates those crumple zones. You'll pull a Dale Earnhardt.
And guys, I got my parts on Monday. Shiny new silver dampers and bright red Sportline springs. The springs are harder than the Konis I had on my Cavalier, and those were pleasantly stiff, so I'm optimistic. Hopefully I can install them on Sunday, but we just got hit with a cold spell so we may not. Whatever. I just want to lift a wheel when pulling into McDonald's.
