Anyone know of a place that sells just the tubes for a respectable price?

TIA!

Just contact some metal shops in your area, tell them what your doing. That would be your best bet

I think Kirk Racing is NHRA compliant but I'm not as familiar with the rules for drag racing compared to road racing. However, that would be a true 6pt cage with a full halo. Is that what you are looking for, or do you want a roll bar with the two additional front braces that look like door bars? Anyway, the Kirk kits are DIY, very well built, and are a little cheaper than the Kirk or Autopower bolt-in types if you have some welding skills.

looking at NHRA rule specs... you'd probably be just as safe putting steel rods aimmed at your forehead.


NHRA cages are scary.

BTW, are there any decent events scheduled in Vegas in late March? I may make another road trip out there for a week during the 3rd or 4th week of March.
