They aren't legal on the street I don't see why the track would allow them.

[Roll Eyes] That makes no sense at all. Lots of things that aren't legal on the streets are legal on the track. Thats why some parts say " off road use only." [Roll Eyes]

Let's say your car goes on fire and you somehow pass out in your car. Who activates the actuators?

That being said, I say any tech that notices that will not let you run.

I never said that I knew if they were legal not. I just mada a statement. [Roll Eyes] Plus, a lot of "track" cars, "drag" cars, do not have door handles, you slide in through the window.

General Lee had door handles though lol. I honestly was just curious and then Jesse here decided to post it up. Back in Indiana you can do whatever you want to your car and no one will say anything.

Also, most people that have shaved door handles have some sort of manual way to open the door incase their accuators go dead or something. [Smile]
