yes it is legal to have a swing out on a roll cage. as for the window net...it does not have to be attached to the door bar, just needs to be placed on the inside of the door bar.

All the rules for imports follow nhra rulebook and nothing has been changed regarding swing outs. Also, the door bar does not have to be the mounting point for the window net.
