I know there are certain restrictions with some of the race organizations.
Who and what are they? What are the penalties? Why shouldn't i tie the shock towers into the cage? Will it work going *under* the engine lid? Or do i need the angle from up high to be effective? What about the front? And how about a removable petty bar? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Andy |

The biggest downside is the door bar. To get support for the roll bar/suspension tubes interface you need to get the door bar up to the level of the towers. That becomes a PITA for ingress/egress. For AX, you need a roll hoop like another hole in the head. With that gone, you can step over the door...when the top is off. Top off used to be worth .5 sec to me back when I had one....no rhyme nor reason for that, it just was. Never tole you that before the shootout......go figure.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
A straight shot tower to tower is not ideal but better than nothing. |
