On karts we run an aluminum floor pan. They're supposed to be mounted above the tabs on the frame. People get lazy and mount them under the tabs. First curb they catch, it grabs the front edge of the floor pan and rips it off.
It is a good point but it's just the same without it if you catch something. I just hate scraping it to the point where there's nothing left. FG/FRP simply thins quicker than poly-u.
