Will roof racks work on a 3-door?

in that case, why not try a welding bottle with pure oxygine at 600psi or something similar; drossle it to 7psi or something similar and get that into the air intake with a large one way valve to keep the overpressure from escaping through the airfilter; throw a extra laughing gass tank next to it on the roofrack and sure you will have the ultimate bottle-tuning

allright, that's enough beer for one evening

Hmmm....
I think that one of John's roofrack setups might be unsafe...
After a bit of investigation it appears he's using a 'Paddy Hopkirk Universal Luggage Deck' on his roofbars. According to the well known (and frequently visited by myself) website 'roof-rack-supplies.co.uk':
"Universal Luggage Deck:
Not suitable for the carrying of canoes, kayaks and ladders."
It says nothing about 2 calor gas cans though.
I never realised there could be so many rules for the use of roof bars! Could we possibly have a roofbar sub-forum?
