RAW STRIKER winter upgrades (roll cage pics)

Well started with the winter upgrades and decided to fit a roll cage and side bars,

bit of security well better than nothing, i know its not as per regs etc but it suits the car i think and was looking for some thing that will do something of a job mainly side protection,

hope you like

looks good the on ly thing i would say is the bar across the middle might need to be bent in the middle as you will hit your head on it with a crash helmet on?

only a suggestion

PS
have a look at my photos of my old car and cage

thankfully its well clear of me checked it with helmet on etc when fitting it all together,

i have over 4 inch clearance,i am a shortie at 5ft 6" so plenty of clearance there.

but thanks for the reply,

i know raw normally bend there bars on the side and aswell and have no centre bar, but wanted it to be kept straight if i could,

thanks and hope you new project is comming together

How are you going to paint it with out tripping the whole car? Also how did you join the front and sides.

I may do something like this over the winter on my striker to it did not cost that much.

What Im getting at is - i want more details and when can i invite my self round to see your car!?!

Oh wait i just did that!!





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
