just a question, but in one or two pics it looks as though you ground the welds on certain parts.... did you guys grind/smooth the welds at all?

Yeah only the points around me got grinded smooth. I asked them to not worry about the rest cause im getting carpet put in...

I dont remember what yours looked like but I remember you complaining about your knee getting banged up. I made sure that didnt happen to me. Also my elbows clear nicely aswell.

i was leaning my leg against my door bar, but it's padded now so no issue with that.

oh, and by the formula D/SCCA rules your cage wouldn't be legal for FD competition

5. Front Roll Hoops:

A. The front or side hoops shall follow the line of the front pillars to the top of the windshield (as close to the roof as possible) then horizontally to the rear attaching to the main hoop. These two side hoops are to be connected together by a tube over the top of the windshield, or

B. A front hoop following the line of the front pillars and connected by horizontal bars to the main hoop on each side at the top may be used, or

C. A top “halo” hoop following the roof line from the main hoop to the windshield with forward down tubes following the line of the front pillars to the floor.

I saw the rules after the cage was done... My mistake. Those bars can be welded on with no problem. I was the first customer they had for a cage.lol. Great guys though. When the time comes my friends will come through, and prep the cage...

Thanks again Bobby and Tod...

This is what I went off of. I looked at Nhra also they are a little different, side bars have two be added. If He is to go Pro we can add to it. Its no big deal. Thanks for that info.

2.1 ; Roll Bars
Roll Bars are required for all SCCA Sanctioned Professional Drifting events, these specifications apply to all vehicles unless specified differently in series specific rules.

The basic purpose of the roll bar is to protect the driver. It must be designed to withstand compression forces from the weight of the car coming down on the roll bar structure and to take fore/aft, and lateral, loads resulting from the car skidding along on its roll bar structure.

A. The Top of the roll bar must be a minimum of 2 inches over the drivers helmet when
the driver is sitting in a normal driving position (as near the roof as possible in closed
sedans) and shall not be more than six inches.

B. The two vertical members forming the sides of the hoop must extend the full width of
the cockpit to provide maximum bearing area.

C. A system of head restraint to prevent whiplash and prevent the driver’s head from striking the underside of the main hoop is required. The head restraint must be padded with a non-resilient material and must be capable of withstanding a force of 200 lbs. in a rearward direction. Closed cars with full cockpit-width main hoops must
have two (2) braces extending to the rear, and attaching to the frame, or chassis. Braces must be attached as near as possible to the top of the main hoop (not more
than 6” below the top), and at an included angle of at least 30-degrees. Main hoop rear bracing shall not extend rearward past the shock towers and must be of the
same dimensions as least equal to that of the main hoop. One diagonal from the top of the main hoop not more than 24” from the drivers side vertical down to the passengers side vertical. A Horizontal bar between the main hoop and diagonal no higher than shoulder high is required for shoulder harness mounting,

well if the person that welded it knew how to weld good, you wouldn't have to clean anything up.
