It seems as though lightbar discussions here are like intel vs. amd discussions at my computer forums.

Or like Ford vs. Chevy on an off-road thread, or wagon vs. sedan on the Subaru sites.

I like the first idea. But there would be complications... Do we really want to make sections regarding speeding, blowing through lights, going the wrong way on a highway, getting too close, and all of the other wonderful things we chasers have to discuss?

Oh, come on now Connor...you couldn't POSSIBLY have any specific recent chasers in mind, that happened to be doing all that in a Camaro? Naw...you haven't seen anyone do that stuff actually LOL!

As far as lights go, I purchased an old Broadway marquee for my rooftop. Still trying to figure out what I'll have it say as I'm chasing though.

Ya, I'm pretty well aware of that. I'm saying there should be a sticky saying so. Sounds like people ask on a regular basis what the legality is, uses, etc.

Kyle....hang around awhile...you'll get a better feel of the board....in due time my friend, in due time.

A sticky is not necessary. All they have to do is use the SEARCH button.

I agree totally. However, if people keep posting threads about it, apparently they aren't using search..

But I guess in the same sense, if they aren't using search chances are they won't read the sticky either.

You guys know what a Lightbar chaser convergence at night looks like?

In all seriousness tho. Auto makers knew that there would be emergencies on the road and thus was the reason for emergency lights. They are very effiecient in alerting others of an emergency whether your stuck in the mud, have a flat tire or are just broke down. People will notice these and will know to get out of the way.

Something like this was already done, observed about 4-5 years ago using an LED marquee sign. Unfortunately, I didn't get pictures, but the thing on the roof looked something like one of these:

I'm sure someone on this forum also spotted them. I wonder who they were and why they needed to draw so much attention to themselves rather than making the storm chase about the storms?

Forget lightbars, its all about 2+ million candlepower spotlights!

I plan on mounting 5 of these on my roof. If theres a tornado at night, its not hiding from me!

Another good idea I have entertained was to mount some lasers and Vari-Lites on a vehicle along with a high wattage PA sound system and go around the Plains continuously playing Dark Side of the Moon, treating everyone to a mobile Pink Floyd Laser Light Show!
