Default Are bends in door bars legal for NHRA?

I am about finnished with my cage except for the door bars and since I am keeping the car in full street trim I am not going to be able to clear the door panel and seats without having a bend in the bar, and not sure if it matters but it would bend towards the middle of the car, so i guess a negative bend for lack of a better explanation, but it shouldnt be that much, just enough to make it past the arm rest. They will also be swing-outs so they will only be in for track days, so if anyone has any insight on this please post it up, thanks.

The rule book is on line at NHRA's site.

We can tell you anything you want to hear.

Take a photo of what your thinking and ask the tech guy's, keep the email.
