Presumption would be ultimately to live to wheel another day.

If it's a cage design issue that says 6 months healing your broken legs before you can wheel again, then maybe it met the function standard but not to the performance level that would be preferred.

But, I only know what you've said and you specifically mentioned no room for feet, no idea why there was no room. Was it the cage? Was it the seat location, harnesses not properly cinched down. I don't know what I don't know. Nor am I versed in the offroad racing world or anything with cages.

Broken legs despite the (presumably) proper and required restraints might fall into the caution of predicting the future to cover all combinations of all possibilities for how an event will play out.

While you can't predict the future you can take precautions to mitigate specific risk but you must recognize the potential for unintended consequences

The better take-away in my mind is the educated guesses we make without crash testing proof. We have an idea of what works, we think we know what works, we test it the worst way possible, with live subjects.

The cramped footwell is what happens when you run the X through the firewall. If you get a good X, it gets in the way of exhaust and whatnot. Get clearance around stuff and the footwells suffer.

What is going on with Savvy? It looks like they’ve been acquired, but the old website is still up. Nothing for our Jeeps on the new site. Are my chances to get a mid arm kit dwindling?

Nothing has changed with Savvy. This is how it has always been with them.
