I wouldn't suggest putting anybody in the back of a caged car. 1 hard braking and kids can crack there head on the bar. I've seen a few pics before. Hard enough could kill them.

I was kidding around. I wouldn't take anyone in the back with the bare cage way too dangerous. I have all the pads if someone does but Nobody would want to fit back there anyways lol its bad enough without a cage

Rocker bars? Or something else? You dont need those if you run subframe connectors according to the nhra book. If they give me a hard time at least its the easiest bars to install and won't have to remove anything but a little paint

The biggest downfall is if the main hoop is too low. Pisses me off when you can't use the mirror. Mine is setup so the hoop is stuffed into the ceiling so nothing is in my way for the mirror. Don't really notice the cage with my door bar out.

Really sucks with the door bar and window net.

yup exactly right! We built it so its above the mirror also i want to be able to drive this and feel somewhat safe. Problem is its up so high might not be able to throw the headliner back in i'll try that tonight if not oh well id rather be able to see than have that.
But the window net and bar with these skinny seats will suck! lol
