In a roll over condition you don't want to be wearing a Ricky (Mikey) Racer 4 
or 5-point harness without a roll bar or cage to keep your head and neck off 
the asphalt or dirt.

Correct. Some sanctioning bodies won't let cars without roll bars compete 
using 4-or 5-point harnesses, just for this reason. There are times when its 
smart to head for the basement..... Having said that, I find the Pantera to be one 
of the most surviveable sportscar designs ever built -with stock belts- in 
spite of the wimpy-looking front windshield posts. FWIW- J DeRyke
