Wait what?

If you have air bags, a helmet, stock seat belt and a bar, you would be fine. Helmet will prevent your brain from homogenizing on the bar and air bag/seatbelt will stop whiplash.

If you delete airbags, throw a stiff steering wheel in, wear a 5point, and have a bar, well its your best interests to where something for your neck.

As far as bar on the street, you can easily set it up so the main hoop is out of the whiplash range of your head and if you have a taller aftermarket seat to prevent head to bar contact, its even better.

All it takes is money. And in the end, shouda stayed stock.
