Vert roll cage

They'll be on you like stink on a monkey, so check out the NHRA specs for cages in the general regulations;

It looks like you only 'need' a roll bar, but a convertible also needs arm restraints. You better check with your track about a cage, because the rules don't specifically say you need one if you haven't cut up the floor, etc.

This is where i run into a problem. I won't be running in a sport compact class anymore. The car is getting a 5.0 conversion... Having the v8 changes my class. I'll e-mail someone at nhra and see what I can find out. i'm going to be running at a few different tracks...

ok, from what I understand: Verts running 13.99 - 10.00 have to have a 6 point roll BAR, not a cage.... I'm still gonna build a cage. Somehow I just don't see the little piece of metal across the top of the windshield holding up in a rollover.... I already have plenty of tubing (bought a shitload of it from a machine shop that was closing down) and a friend with access to a manderel bender and whatever kind of welding/machining tools I could ever want.
I'll post some pics when we get it built. I'm still waiting on my NHRA rulebook to see if there are any specifications on where the cage has to connect to the chassis....
