I can highly recommend a roll cage in any paddock basher.

It's amazing how good of a driver you think you are when there is nothing to hit... then whoops too fast too sharp and over she goes...
ive though about it, shes pretty low in the ass end i think it might have been lowered dont know, im not that concerned i really only go around my track around the sheds, ive done the same in my standard vh 202/auto with no troubles, had her whip round a few times on the damp grass, its a completely different feeling whip in this then the old girl
Just pull the airbag fuse
which one is it?

interior needs clean but its a paddock basher so who cares anyway, good that all the doors open, my old girl only the drivers would, passenger front stuffed up and wouldnt shut so i wired it around the pillar, couldnt open the back door then, and the drivers back was hit and miss lol

ok ive decided to disconnect the traction control, is it unusual for the vt to not have abs i took this little cover expecting to find the abs only to find burrs and dead grasshoppers? is it meant to be like that its a 98 model i pulled a few bits of a vr at the wreckers and it had abs?

Careful not to suck any dust down it's throat. Could prematurely kill it and that equals no fun.
