The simple truth is wheelie bars provide safety to racers and staff and simple little notches to the rear valance pose no threat to anyone.

I'm not spinning anything, except tires.

I'm not arguing here. However, I have driven several 9 second stockers, that 60' in the 1.2's, without wheelie bars, and the last thing in my mind was how "unsafe" they were.

I agree about the notches, that's ridiculous. If you are going to allow a car to have wheelie bars, then why limit the manner in which they are installed??
