Anyone have a roll bar? Pics please!
Looking to get an Autopower "Race" soon, just wanting to see how many and what kinda holes I'm gonna have to be drilling.

There anything special and needs to be done to a cage to be certified to run so fast or compete in a special class ?
Joe Blow cant just weld a pos cage in his garage and call it good right, it would need to be inspected ? what do they when they inspect it ?

unless you've built cages before I wouldn't recommend this - it is a science.

No, but some classes dictate that you can only use a bolted in cage as opposed to a welded in cage.

Some pics of my Art morrison roll cage while my car is in the body shop. $312 bucks for the cage, betta recognize!! heheh I like it. Still have to add the bar across the main hoop, but other than that, it's pretty much done.

Ladies and gents this is why you do not get a cheap cage or do it yourself. That a-pillar is pretty much worthless. You'd be just as well off with only a roll-bar. So now you've got roll-bar functionality with the pain of having a full-cage.

Correct. If you were in a rollover that a-pillar bar would just collapse - support structures in compression should not be bent in shape. All this is doing is giving it a place to do.
Also two diagonal braces in the rear section is just added weight. One will do just as good of a job.
