NHRA Legal Roll Cage? I need one!

cyberstang5.0 · 05-04-2002, 07:56 PM

I am looking for a NHRA leagal roll cage. Either 8 or 10 point cage for a fox body with a hatchback. I want the side bars that run across the seats to be bolt on so I can take them out when I'm on the street and put them in when I'm on the track...

I want to take out the bars so I can get in and out easy, and plus if I ever find a girlfriend

I don't think she'll like crawling over it just to get in....

I was looking at the Kenny Brown 8-point cage, but I found out that it's not NHRA legal

Better check the NHRA rule book. If you're going fast enough to require a 10-pt cage then removable downbars aren't allowed. The only swing-outs are allowed on 5/6-pt bars down to 10.99 if I remember correctly.

Check out S&W Race Cars for a wide selection of roll bar kits.
