Insurance information straight from the source!

[Double Venom]

You know I will show up sooner or later!

It is now taking me an hour each night just to keep up with what has been said all day.

David, a page ago you nailed it, Then Evan nailed it, our point is getting across. First we have to get Evan acclimated to, NSRA, NHRA, ISCA, NSA, etc.

Let me address a few issues. Over the years the NSRA had been sued by streetrodders who passed, did not pass the safety points suggested by them. Even though their whole intent, like ours was to help make their hobby and their members rides safer. As far as I know NSRA won every case, came up with a new disclaimer that has held up 100% for every inspection. It simply indemifys () the inspector and the organization-period.

Once again, I know the manufacturer's ARE reading these posts. I know they are not shaking in their leather chairs with nightmares of airbags, ABS etc. I would like to think they are seeing some dollar signs when they tell a potential customer that their car, built correctly will easily pass the new organizations safety suggestions.

Before I would even allow any, or all manufacturer's to monetarily support us, it would have to be put in front of our council. It is not and will NOT be our job to tell potential customers if one Cobra is safer than another. If we tell that customer that X,Y,Z does support the safety organization, that may or may not be a valid point.

Let me expound on that last comment a little and play the advocate. Our group knows X,Y, and Z company's very well, they support us and do everything they can to make their cars safe. Now comes a brand new company. They want to sign on, or better yet, demand to be put on the "A" list. We allow them, then find out their main frame rails are PVC plastic. They have no provisions for proper seat belt mounting let alone seat belt mounting, what do we do? Oh ya, they are on our list, but we al know their car wouldn't be safe for a kiddy ride at an amusement park!

Pallet Cars, Turnkey minus cars: Unique, Superformance, SAI. What's the difference! The rules WILL apply to all kit cars, ALL of them. I would like to think the only thing we may find wrong with one of these type cars during a safety check might be a "weeping" brake line!

All kit cars, all self assembled vehicles, all home built. What ever you call them, they ARE the same to the insurance company.

Insurance company's will not tell us how. Cobra companies will not tell us how, God willing, the Government will not tell us how.
"WE" will do it on our own. We will do it right. We can and "we" will do this with your support.

DV....I'm ready, are you?
