Default Q. Will roll bars help?
Ive been roadracing (track schools) the ZO6 and was curious if i could gain any performance characteristics from adding roll bars. Not looking for so much as safety but handling. Any thoughts?

Thanks
Shawn

Could make it worse from the added mass.

Anything that can be done to stiffen the frame is good imho.
