Roll Cage questions
- Thread starter Dudgy
- Start date
For a roll bar (minimum for SS) the rear bars cannot exceed a 30 angle from what i understand, this keeps structural support of the main hoop, but when you have a 8 point cage, the reae bars can exceed the 30 degree limit and tuck up against the headliner like mine. Like i said earlier, we built mine with streetability in mind, and the rear seat will bolt in, and visibility is exceptional
Cage pictures
here are a few pictures, I'll get more of the mounts to the frame, as they are similar to Casper's but not quite the same

Just curious where your read that? Checking this link that I posted here.

Section 20 page 25 states "All cars with an OEM steel frame must have roll cage welded to frame"
Am I reading it wrong or missing another section?
Kelly's rear bars and mine are pretty similar, but a simple roll bar will not pass nhra tech and be "certified" with them because they dont meet the 30 degree rule. Granted, most track techs dont give a shi#
Your lucky in CA they do. When we had the first rollbar in Casper one track told us not to come back until we attached the plates to the body different. Even though we ran in Texas without a problem. At least with the cert we have now we should have a problem at any NHRA track. If my foot ever gets better that is.
