If you leave the road at speed, luck will determine whether you go inverted 
by tripping the wheels on some feature. If you end up greasy side up, next 
problem is Fire. You might crawl out w/a solid roll bar. Many years ago, my 
sister rolled her roll barred Sprite at an unseen jog in the road. No serious 
damage seen at first, but after being talked into x-rays they found Broken 
neck, fused vertabrae,body cast for months, no serious impairment. Remember 
the racers usually have a decent area to slide into and kill off speed. Out 
in the sticks there are still all those skinny trees which can easily destroy 
a car or body parts. Temper enthusiasm w/ caution.   Peter
