By nhra rules you can run a 5 point roll "bar" w/ swing-out up to 10.0 and under 135 mph.

It is most def. legal for the times the car runs

Edited to 10.0 not 10.5 sorry for the confusion if i caused any....

The cage is leagl with a swing out bar down to 10.0 at my tracks anyway.

Well with the car seat strapped in and him strapped in he is well over a foot from the roll bar so I cant see any reason why I cant put my kids in any more. This is my wife's main car that the kids ride in all the time. I am going to also put padding on the bar.

Oops my bad i meant to say 10.0 and under 135mph at nhra sanctioned tracks at least....not sure what ihra tracks require.

Do you like the half-shell type padding or the full wrap around stuff because i'm done bending my main hoop and will need to put some padding in as well.
