I have a sneaking suspicion that with our car's lightweight and affordability, that the headliner is just a mm or two of cloth, nothing significant

I had a party foul as I purchased my new forced air helmet with a top vent for my STi. Hopped into my FRS for a race at Road Atlanta and Doh! I had to jump out and remove the vent before my race and that only adds an inch.

I'm just about 6-2 and I have no idea how you taller guys fit in there as I have to slouch slightly in the seat.

I'm less worried about roll over clearance since I will cage the car but have any of you 6+ drivers tried to climb out the window? Now that is scary! If your door jams in a crash and the car is on fire its a tight squeeze getting out!
