For a race car, provisions would have to be made to install some type back brace

And is it billet, or a high pressure alum casting or what? Looks neat, and at a price i think it might catch, better get them quick before demand catches up. Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
