I just checked the exclusion list and my Citroen isn't on it! I'm going to sell the Fiesta and campaign this in 2015!

In reply to yamaha: The safety stewards should make the DSP BMW drivers correct the two wheeling with wider wheels and tires, 1"+ wheel adapters, or other mods because rollovers shouldn't be a worry. I'm surprised that some econoboxes (except the Fiesta ST) are rollover prone in autocross, but some performance SUVs are not, especially the older ones.
