So I guess we are only arguing the "street" environment here and not a track of any sort. Still, it must hold some water.
Well, I think the line between a true street car and not, is being blurred here.

Yes, guys walk away from big race car wrecks, but you don't see them getting taken away because the camera rarely shows that. A regular car crash always has victims on backboards cause its a lawsuit if the EMT's don't take every precaution with a crash victim. Again, race car rules vs street car rules.

True street cars don't need bars.
