All I can say is again the racing community says this is a huge no no. Just
not strong enough and too much inconsistency with quality of the pipes. I
am guessing the safety factor in a buggy would be less than a stock car but
still if the thing rolled over you don't want to get squashed. Plus isn't
this stuff pretty damn heavy?
