    Going to bet hitting the tree on the passenger side had a LOT to do with it--which kind of makes my skin crawl...

    That section where the firewall meets the floor is pretty stout.

    I'll tell you how. Blackbird Fabworx roll bar, Cobra Classic RSR bucket seats, Schroth ASM harnesses. Garage Star fender braces also strengthened that area significantly. Without those things I would be dead.

    From the looks of the impact area, that rollbar didn't do much. Then again, I'm not an engineer.

    Bryan you would be right as when I pulled the roll bar out and checked dimensions as given to me by Moti, it was perfectly fine. Good news for my wallet as I don't have to drop $1000 on a new BBFW bar.
