| Rollbars
- by iMR2 and Devin
This month's feature comes to us courtesy of iMR2 and Devin, two SpyderMagazine users who have installed the Dave Turner Motorsport AutoPower roll bar on their cars. WOW! If there’s a first thing to
get for the Spyder, this is definitely one of them. I thought the chassis
was pretty stiff already, but after installing the rollbar I noticed a
much stiffer chassis.

One thing I did notice immediately
was the road noise. Not so much that it increased, but the interior sounds
different. Nothing bad, but an observation.
My
guess is that the bar probably absorbs the road conditions and that’s
what I’m feeling and hearing???. The interior noise just sounds and
feels different, it’s hard to explain, but something you’d know after
having gotten used to a certain sound and feel for awhile. I plan on
filling the rollbar with foam to strengthen it even further, so this may
change again for me. |
