Default Re: Floorboard

I started fastening floorboards down after I realized that even in an easy roll over, I would be sharing space with not only the floorboards but also the battery. I also upgraded my battery hold down system. It’s only a tiny safety improvement, but I’ll take all the safety margin I can get. This thought process was inspired by the roll over that occurred on the Grand Tour at French Lick about 15 years ago.

As I recall, Bonnie Parker (Bonnie and Clyde) was severely burned by battery acid from hip to ankle when she and Clyde were involved in a rollover accident. Not sure make or year of the car, but Clyde preferred Fords...
