I put my SM backwards into the wall at Sonoma T10 in 2018 (what a way to do first ever enduro, eh?) but i got off without even a sore neck thanks to full safety gear
I will have to check out that turn of Sonoma in forza.

Yeah I am not tall enough to fail the broomstick test (edit: top of helmet far below the anti-roll bar). Except track education days run by a race oriented group requiring 5/6 point harness in addition to a roll bar, my setup is fine with other HPDE days. Since I am not racing things are a lot more predictable unless something suddenly breaks. Or is it just a pattern that all people who crashed badly at HPDE saying (lying?) that something broke in their cars?
