Default 1082 911SC Street Driving Questions
I have an SC that I have added a roll bar and 5 point harness. Can the car be driven legally on the street with only one seat and the harness?

What state/country are you in?

Why do you not have a passenger seat? Most forms of competition require that a passenger front seat be fitted to the car...

Can your head hit the roll bar if you're in an accident while driving on the street without wearing a helmet?

I live in Florida and I will be adding a passenger seat in the near future.

Excellent point! Always be sure to use roll bar padding, and have sufficient clearance to the hoop and any diagonals that are close to your headrest.

Why, yes it is! Unfortunately I had to have a special helmet made to accomodate it.

Also keep in mind that for many types of events , both front seats need to be the same, or no passenger allowed.
