I like what one of the instructor had said...to paraphrase: it's not
the "fault" of the road, the burm that was hit to cause the roll, the
sway bars, the tires, the shocks, or springs. Ultimately, it's the
driver that makes the decisions to drive the way he does, what line he
takes, and how fast he drives, taking into consideration all the
conditions of his environment.  That accident could have taken place
with any Miata and any suspension setup. It's the driver inside that
counts.
