actually, when i went to scca solo2, i got one of the instructors to drive my car, to see how its done. the guy was pretty big, and he actually had to open the sunroof, to get the helmet to stick out, hehe, so its good in some cases.

and if you are going to drive this on the street, a sunroof is kinda cool, try driving with it open at night time, its super cool.

and me and brian are members of the nico offset police, so if you buy queer, crap sized wheels for your car, expect to be made fun of by the both of us.

You almost have to have a sunroof. I know that at one point most of you will want to do a swap and odds are you won't bother with the A/C. Need I say more?

Nothings better then opening your sunroof, taking your headrest off, leaning your seat forward, and doing smokey donuts for the camera with your upper torso sticking out.

Sunroofs are awesome. Countless deeds have been done because of the luxury. Makes it better for vdeotaping IMO. You drive, your friend stands through your sunroof and hold on for dear life with one hand while trying to focus the camera with the other. During this event the tree branch I saw ahead was a priceless moment actually it costed $200 because the camera was lost due to my friend not being able to duck.
