RAM™
Adjustable Mountings and Lightweight Design Creates the Appropriate
Mirror View Angle
Enabling Racers to See from Every Angle
With
its clear, crisp and sharp seamless full rear traffic view
by revealing all lanes of a complete and uninterrupted rear
road scene, the patented ALLVIEW™ Mirror System (AMS™)
created the one-seamless-piece Racers ALLVIEW™ Mirror
(RAM™) in 1992.
Today,
with the combination of the “ALLVIEW™ Mirror built-in
housing nuts” and the “ALLVIEW™ Mirror adjustable
mirror brackets” mountings, AMS™ creates the adjustable
mountings and lightweight RAM™ that no other mirror
can claim. The adjustable range between the roll bar mounting
brackets is from 7-1/2” to 20”, while the RAM™
housing and mirror embodiment (11 oz.) is about as lightweight
as that built out of carbon fiber housing and mirror embodiment
(9 oz.).
Providing the Appropriate Mirror View Angle to See
From Every Angle:
Reflecting
a full rear traffic view is one thing, but seeing the full
rear traffic view through the mirror mounted on a roll bar
from the driver position in a racecar is another. That is
because the purpose of the roll bar was designed for rollover
protection instead of for installing a mirror to enhance the
racer’s vision.
A
series of bars are bent and welded together into a contoured
shape and then bolted directly to the frames. Hence, if the
roll bar bending corner is located in and between fixed roll
bar mounting brackets it places the fixed brackets on both
ends of the mirror mounted in two-dimensions, which produces
the improper mirror view angle creating blind spots the racer
does not even know exists. With the improper mirror view angle
while traveling in excess of 150 miles per hour and literally
inches apart, the racer should be prepared for the worst.
The solution is all done with the RAM™ symmetrical adjustable
mountings.
The combination of the “ALLVIEW™ Mirror built-in
housing nuts” and the “ALLVIEW™ Mirror adjustable
mirror brackets” creates adjustable mountings with bilateral
symmetry mirror alignment and operation that is vibration
free, which places the AMS™ bracket mountings in one-dimension
on the roll bar providing the appropriate ALLVIEW™ Mirror
view angle, which enables the racer to see from every angle
when whirling around race tracks without turning his head.
Driving Health And Psychology:
An object viewed in a convex mirror is distorted, which distracts
the racer’s eyes impairing the racer’s vision
feeling fatigued when whirling around race tracks. With the
same object viewed in RAM™, racers experience no difference
when compared to viewing with the naked eye.
Solid, Professional Restyling, Finish and Look:
The Racers ALLVIEW™ Mirror with its built-in nuts housing
and mirror embodiment, adjustable mirror brackets, roll bar
mounting brackets and hose clamps fasteners, making the race
car and RAM™ appear together as one molded body, gives
any race car interior a solid, professional restyling, finish
and look.
