This thread may win the 'long shot of the year' award but here goes...

I was about to pull the trigger on a Javelin event at Croft circuit this weekend, then noticed one of the regs means my car isn't eligible without either 'adequate roll over protection' or a hardtop (can't see how that is adequate rollover protection, but hey, I don't make the rules...).

So, my question is, is there anyone between Preston and Croft circuit willing to let me rent a hardtop for the weekend? I am absolutely happy to collect from you (Saturday afternoon), drop off back with you (early Sunday evening), leave the full value in cash with you while it's away, and then leave some of that once I've gone as a rental fee / thanks.

Not expecting floods of replies on this one  :))  But having done similar (from the other way round) in the past, I thought it was worth a shot.

Thanks in advance,
Adam

Totally would be happy to loan but I'm a long way south of you...

Just thinking out loud...
Do you also need the fitting kit?

Seriously though - I hadn't considered that... perhaps a non starter in that case. I come from MX5s where they have the little 'stubs' as standard!

Very kind, thank you! It's the thought that counts :)

In reality it's only 4 brackets and some bolts. You don't need the trim specifically, unless they see a sharp edge I guess.
If you are going travel for the top I don't see the brackets too as a big issue personally.
