    If you have room, I wouldn't mind a stick or two myself John. I will definitely trade for crown/beer.

    I have seen pipe insulation with black PVC wrap on it. One of my customers uses it to insulate tubing. The wrap is wider than the insulation and self adhesive, so it overlaps the gap and closes/hides the seam. I just checked grainger and mcmaster and did not find it. Looks like something 3M would make.

    I guess you are more concerned about it not hurting when you bump your head rather than not crushing your skull in a rollover?

    Pipe insulation is equivalent to nothing at all.

    I plan to maybe flop my rig at most, going 3mph like most people on here. I plan to bump my head getting in and out of the truck, that is where I need a little protection. I don't think having pipe insulation or closed cell foam or whatever is going to make a difference whether I live or die from cranial woundage.

    Good to have you back John, now we can argue on the internet again!

    If I am belted in, I hope to not be hitting my head on the cage anyway. I'm sure it could happen, but this stuff is free, and when I hit my head on it getting in or crawling to the backseat, it doesn't hurt.

    I am pretty sure I have come close to denting my cage a few times while crawling in the truck.

    I recently ordered cage padding from Jegs and have some lengths leftover if you need any Karl.

    I was surprised when I saw the real stuff, it was much more dense than I thought. I guess John it talking about if your head hits the cage violently the closed cell stuff will save your noggin. At first I was thinking if the cage crushed in, in which case you are fooked either way. I still think that pipe insulation will help a tiny bit.
