if your cage builder doesnt know whats leagal, your in trouble. Its all in the rulebook. Look at the pics in a summit catalogue at their 10 point cages...it will give you an idea.

prolly a dumb question but why do you have wheelie bars. i see all these FWd cars having wheelie bars.. does it stop the car from sitting.

like when i launch the *** end sits down.. :D
