ABSTRACT:
A sacrificial inertial barrier and an array thereof particularly useful on race circuits. The frangible barrier includes a thin walled plastic tub containing an energy absorbing dispersible mass such as water or sand, the tub being supported on a thin-walled plastic ring which elevates the dispersible mass to a height at which its CG is the same as the CG of a particular type racecar, e.g. a Formula I car.
