Tracking w/ Moon Roof

CoffeeLife · 11-16-2018, 05:17 PM

Never thought I would get addicted to the track. Any risks w/ tracking my M2 that has a Moonroof?

If only times are affected, then I'm not worried.

I don't know of any elevated risks involved with having a moon roof. Source: My other car has a moon roof and I've taken it to the track more than the M2 (which doesn't).

Nope! And you can attach your cam to it!

I don't know of any increased risk, I think the main objections to moon roofs for tracking are:

Increased weight, at the top of the car which moves CoG up which is not ideal
Reduces headroom, which is exacerbated by helmets
Cost

Since I'm not competing, I'm not tall and I do like the extra light and opening it occasionally I optioned it.

The only risk is that of a black flag because you forget to close it before heading out . . .

There are some compromises, as mentioned. But since you have one, don’t sweat it.
