Default Pics of roll bars.

Just wanted to see if anyone had pics of their roll bars in their tegs that i could check out?
Prefereably with side bars in so i can see how they clear the seats. I was told i might have quite a bit of trouble getting past my sparco's with the door panels in .

Thanks.

There's going to be a significant difference between a roadrace rollbar and a dragrace "rollbar" (i.e., with forward legs as opposed to an Autopower with legs going to the rear shock tower area by the rear speakers). Ed

They do need them - search for "rollbar" and "cage" and "harness" for RR/AX forum topics (but dont post a thread asking for pics - there's plenty of pictures already up).

A good cage will not have any interference with the seat in an integra though.

Side bars (or actually "door bars" in a roadrace rollcage) are different as prescribed by the rules of the governing body.

You'll really need to check the rules since a drag "rollbar" usually requires that the forward door bars go forward from a point somewhere near sholder level on the main hoop to the footwell area, whereas in a roadrace cage there are the upper forward tubes that come down along the A-pillar as well as horizontal "door bars" connecting the main hoop to the a-pillar tube.

Just a start ... Ed.

Well road race cars need different side impact protection than drag cars do - there's a much higher chance of getting t-boned

Sorry We couldn't help you with that particular problem.
And yeah, I can see how there might be some clearance issues. Ed
