Hey i was looking at the 340 the other day and noticed what a great roll bar it has, what does every one else think and do you think it could be put onto a locost?

Cant see any reason why not, other than it looks a little less simple to make! If you can design it to take the sides all the way down to the lower rails in front of the rear suspension then I imagine it'll be a hell of a lot stronger than book too.

Interesting fact about the 340R, well not really but makes you think twice about the aero engineers at Louts. Apparently the 'wings' in front of the front wheels were an after thought. They were added after the car flipped over during wind tunnel testing at 70mph!!! Incredible peice of aerodynamics and weight distribution!

The roll bar does look good, but it's not very light. Sufficiently heavy in fact that some people have taken them out and replaced them with tubular ones.

anyone got a link to an image?

http://www.340r.net/

typed it in google and got this. Search engines do what it says.

yours, Pete.

sorry, just being a lazy ar**.

Guys,

Just a small point here in defence of Ned.

Yes Pete, fully agree google is wonderful. I use it all the time..

However in this case where someone is asking for opinions it would nice to show the image or give a link...

Otherwise I agree 100% about finding stuff yourself.

Just my view, not trying to be awkward...

hoorah for Mr Alan B!

Ned.
