audio,

when you install the bar, especially after a new paint, just protect the door sills. You have to take both seats out and then slid the main hoop in. So don't fubar your new paint!

Do you guys do custom roll cage fabrications? Because I plan on getting a full roll cage soon for SCCA/NASA.

No, The 6 point roll bar is all that I offer.

In addtion to the roll bar orders, I also supply a couple of other aftermarket companys, So I'm not scheduling any custom work for at least 9 months.

Aww I see. I was really hoping you guys did custom roll cages because I really like your work. I'd get it but the only thing it lacks are bars that go down the A-pillar.

Total weight for this set up is 65 lbs. I will post the weight each option to give everyone an idea of what their bar will weigh.

Thanks to everyone for the positive feedback, I think I'm working faster now.

It was covered in the GB thread. The SCCA didn't offer a "blanket" certification, you've got to deal with that locally. The bar is built with methods and materials that conform to the guidlins however.

Today I took my rx7 to Searspoint to make some runs with the new roll bar. My roll bar passed NHRA inspection without any problems at all. Thanks Larry for all of the work.

Note. It is worth the wait for this roll bar from Larry. Everything just fits perfect.

I went to sacramento race way on sunday and my car passed tech without any problems. The door bars are a pain to drive with on the street but they come out in a minute. I drove to the track with the door bars out and then I just put them in at the track. My car is now legal for 10.0 and 135mph with the Raceshop roll bar. I am not able to use the nitrous on the bar because it runs 143mph on the 75 shot.

how was CMI that day? A lot of my friends went but I dont have a intercooler so I didnt go. What times did you pull at CMI and Infinieon? I'm pretty sure you pulled a better time at CMI.
