i was just wondering about roll cages. i want to do autox and stuff but i will need a roll cage. can somone explain to me the diffrences between a 4 and 6 and stuff like that, and where i can get them

 

well if you know how to weld you can do it yourself when they say you want a 4 point roll cage or a 6 point roll cage means where how many ends of the roll cage connect to the chassis i think the smallest is 4 and its just 4 ends of the tube welded to the chassis and the higher you go the more point are welded to the chassis i think the highest points is 26 but thats for monster trucks for cars i think no more than 12 or something like that

I'd go with the six, but ya need to check what is needed for autoX where you are going to go and drive

 

On the bottom row of keys, right between the "," and the "/" buttons, there is a small dot. <- see there it is. Use this to end sentences, so people can understand you....

 

i understood him....i'm not too **** about o ther's spelling or grammar, trust me there are worse. I, on the other hand, try to write in an orderly manner.

 

I can't find any good weld in 6 points. I could make one myself, but I'm lazy. I liked the one they insalled on FC3S.org but it has dead links. Who here has a cool roll bar in their car, and where did they get it?

they sell some rollcage/bar for fcs

 

You don't need a cage for auto-x..

Exactly. I would say not to worry about one unless the car is a dedicated race car. It's not worth the hassle for a street car.

 

If your buying a roll bar/cage because its cool your doing it for the wrong reasons.

 

u need a roll bar for a vert ??

I got mine through CP.

NOt too expensive either.

 

check the rules of whatever governing association you're planning on competing. It would suck to get a cage, and then get bumped into another class, due to too agressive cage.

 

For just auto-x, you should not need a roll bar/cage either.

As for a roll bar, where to get it, mine's a custom job..

I have used the autopower or just a custom one we made here in the shop, if you are just trying to look cool go with a autopower 4 point, spd racing (760-787-5759) has them for sale
