Race cars use a variety of extra gear (including the driver's helmet) to protect the driver in the event of rollover.
Regardless of your height, there's a good chance that you've "bought the farm" if you roll your 986. Let's be realistic.....an ordinary belt and harness will not glue you to the seat, therefore you are falling "upward" when it rolls. The windshield frame won't do much to protect you so the car will lie on it's hood and rollbar.


But....it's bery hard to roll ANY car. Watch Top Gear on TV for examples. So, don't loose sleep over it and "keep yer dirty side down".
