And I thought those marauding Danes were adventurous?

Haha, yeah, but I'm not partaking in no Le Mans. I'll be riding the Bolivian Death Road before entering in a Le Mans in a threewheeler.

I thought it was a 24h race like the real thing. But going there in it shouldn't be hard or difficult. If earplugs are inserted.

Now who's going to LMC in 2012 by 3W, maybe we should have a new thread on a sticky or is anybody else mad enough to be even thinking about it? I'd be up for that

I think that helmets in a trike will look rather odd.
A leather flying helmet & goggles is a different matter - Rocky & Bulwinkle style. Over here in Australia, there are many 3 wheeled motorcycles called trike's, 2 very large rear tyres and lots of chrome. Usually powered by a Harley Davidson engine. They have to wear helmets regardless of what they think. How can a 3 wheeled (car) be anything else? calling the new Morgan 3 wheelers by any other name is just fooling oneself. When tumbling down an embankment at 60 k's I would definitely be glad of a helmet. More boys are killed here riding quads than motorcycles, next is girls falling of horses. Its not mandatory to wear a helmet on a Quad on private land.
If you are doing nothing, how do you know when you are finished?

All valid points Peter.
Despite Charles mentioning the safety aspect of the roll bars, I imagine they will be of limited benefit unless you are wearing a 4-point harness and do not have a head that sits proud of them.

My biggest concern would be from rocks propelled by other vehicles on our local freeways.
Would hate to lose a front tooth, or even get bug splats on my scruffy face.
