Roll Cage

[MrQuick]

James, a properly constructed cage or bar is safe in that manner. Rules have the bar several inches away from ones helmet,that distance would increase without a helmet. I think if a taller person drove that same car you might have problems. The knee bar is a real pain,literaly if your belts are loose.
Tony the 2 small bars actually tie into the subframe connecters or mid frame x member,but yes why not just add the 2 front runners to the front subframe for the 10 point.
