For Pantera safety, Personally speaking, I don’t see where a single Roll Bar will add much to what’s already built into the original Pantera design. A roll cage will reinforce those rather weak windshield pillars greatly. That firewall shear panel coupled with the B Pillars and the Targa top hoop structure makes that middle of the car exceptionally strong. The Next greatest weakness in a Pantera is reinforcing the doors for the side impact. Again, a Cage can be fashioned with side bars to reinforce the doors, so you can add another level of safety protection again with a cage.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="m_8599473586464500090xmsonormal">Larry<u></u><u></u></p><p class="m_8599473586464500090xmsonormal"> <u></u><u></u></p><p class="m_8599473586464500090xmsonormal"> <u></u><u></u></p><div style="border-style:solid none none;border-top-width:1pt;padding:3pt 0in 0in;border-top-color:rgb(181,196,223)"><p class="m_8599473586464500090xmsonormal"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;color:black">From: </span></b><span style="font-size:12pt;color:black">TPR <<a href="mailto:tpr-bounces@teampanteraracing.com" target="_blank">tpr-bounces@teampanteraracing.com</a>> on behalf of DENNIS ANTENUCCI via TPR <<a href="mailto:tpr@teampanteraracing.com" target="_blank">tpr@teampanteraracing.com</a>><br><b>Reply-To: </b>DENNIS ANTENUCCI <<a href="mailto:teampantera@yahoo.com" target="_blank">teampantera@yahoo.com</a>><br><b>Date: </b>Tuesday, January 10, 2023 at 8:46 AM<br><b>To: </b>Larry Stock <<a href="mailto:larrys@panteraparts.com" target="_blank">larrys@panteraparts.com</a>><br><b>Cc: </b>Team Racing <<a href="mailto:tpr@teampanteraracing.com" target="_blank">tpr@teampanteraracing.com</a>><br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [TPR] Fwd: SSCC 2023 Rule book changes</span><u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p class="m_8599473586464500090xmsonormal"> <u></u><u></u></p></div><p class="m_8599473586464500090xmsonormal">Great info on Pantera ….I do recall reading something about the B piller protection on the Pantera. <u></u><u></u></p><div><p class="m_8599473586464500090xmsonormal"> <u></u><u></u></p><div><p class="m_8599473586464500090xmsonormal">Thanks for the reminder.
