Chip,
rear and side vision is not bad(especially for racing, as people do not just sit in the blind spot) if you put some raydot junior mirrors on little pedestals and use the convex wide angle mirrors (warning, objects are closer, etc.).I wish I could figure out how to put a picture of this up, but I do live in Atlanta, and would be happy to show you my car. Also, I have cheated here, cause I have a spyder and one of those racing sequential mirrors up over my head "in the wind" and have great rear vision with that.
regards
J.W.
