That's why its outdated. They make you take out the airbags so that if you bump another car on track the air bag wont go off and blind you possiably causing you to hit the wall or another car much harder.Skill wrote:spec has been canceled for the neon.
*I don't get why they request the air bags to be removed.*
Since the class is cancled you dont have to have the badges to run in PTE. Unless you are building a dedicated race car dont worry about it.
