Hey guys

Events at Lime Rock Park require Rollover protection deployed and that it pass a broomstick test. I am not sure a 997 cab will pass, anyone know for sure?

Is it something the dealer must do (piwis) or can I pop it up? I imagine it pops up pretty quickly so it may be a hazard. If need be I can tilt my car 70 degrees to test

 

you'll be fine. I track mine quite often. Our pop-out bars pop up quite high. You will pass the broomstick test with no issues. Go out and enjoy the track. Our cars are born on it. You'll have a blast.

They want them pre-popped. Is there a procedure? When I bought the car the dealer said they would do it free of charge for me, but they're 50 miles away.

 

Did you check the manual? It has a write up on how to retract the bar. I can't recall if it has instruction on how to pop it.

 

I may be wrong but they only deploy once the car senses it's about to turn over. Most tracks around the world know that the 997TT Cab is track-safe.

 

It would probably be easiest and safest to have the dealer do it, so nothing else gets broken if trying to do it yourself
