Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

19 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So it looks like hardtop installed and pop-ups is not sufficient for DE at VIR. So no I am researching installing a rollbar in the 996CAB for DE events. I am looking for input from those of you that have installed one. I currently have a new BK Harness mount that is awesome but now a waste so I wnat something that will work as good as it has regarding my harness installs and camera mount. Thanks for the suggestions!

POST 2Original post

Dell, Is the DE a PCA event? The 996 Tech Advise column on the PCA website says that PCA nat'l standards require only a "factory installed rollover protection" ... which standard is met by the 996 roll bars, even when stored in normal position. Here's a partial quote from that post: Our region (Lone Star) DE Handbook states that "any make of car delivered with factory-installed roll over protection meets the minimum standards for PCA DE events." This is a direct quote from page 2 of the PCA DE Guidelines at http://www.pca.org/members/library/P...Guidelines.pdf . On this basis, our Region accepts that the factory-installed retracted roll bars are suffici ent for DE purposes.

POST 3Original post

I believe the track's own rules supersedes the organizer's.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks everybody! Especially the first hand confirmation from AC996C2 and the track supercede rules. I figured that would be the case. Off to order the Teq bar. Cheers,

POST 7Original post

Is it street legal? Can it be easily removed? I may be interested too.

POST 8Original post

On my coupe, no. On a cab, I think so, but have no first-hand experience.

POST 9Original post

Is that an answer to the first or second question? Thanks.

POST 10Original post

I know a guy with a 996TTcab. Runs the rollbar that the Porsche dealers sell.. is that Techart? Sorry for blanking out on the name. Nice bolt in piece. Easy in-out. No drilling if i recall correctly.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Should be Tequipment (Porsche).

POST 12Original post

Oops... that was an answer to the second question. As far as the first, I don't know but can't imagine why it wouldn't be street legal.

POST 13Original post

Dell - VIR won't let you run with PSE at the track. Since you "dumpstered" your stock cans in LV, just send me your PSE and I'll send you my stock cans, even up! hee hee! BTW, just kidding about VIR and PSE, but it was worth a shot!

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Bad Tim! NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!!

POST 15Original post

I believe roll bars are legal only because I know a couple of people with covertible stangs and Miata's the leave theirs in during the week(their daily driver).

POST 16Original post

wouldn't the bar ruin the lines of a cab when top down? why not drive your gt3?

POST 17 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

VIR requires the rollbar in a CAB. The pop-ups and hardtop installed are not suffiicient. Besides, the wife tracks as much as I do and is just as addicted. She got tired of sharing the car at track days a fews months back and thus the reason for adding a GT3.

POST 18Original post

Dell - speaking of the GT3, are you any closer to making a decision on which one?

POST 19 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

996 in SY or Carrara White. Will start looking to make serious offers in about 4 weeks.
