Default New Cage pics! What do you think?

Here are some pics of our new project. It's not for drag racing though. What do you think? Sugestions?

We can build cages too.

You sure? I mean the brace that runs vertically from the driver's lower to the passenger's upper. I've always seen it run from passenger's lower to driver's upper.

Looks very similar to my car actually. I thought I went overboard by running bars to the rear shock towers AND into the trunk. Sweet. Mine touces in 18 places i think because I tied it into the front shock towers as well. I tell you what, that makes a HELLA stiff car. Nice work too, puts my work to shame

are there any rules for AutoX or drag to how the roll cage is built or installed in the car? Or does having one put you in some sort of diffrent racing bracket?

For example i heard that you cant use a front strut bar that also mounts on to the firewall. This is StOOpids car just to show what i mean.

In life there will always be rules.

NHRA and SCCA have different rules.
