Safer than none

J/K. The height of the rears are level and gradually slope down away from the hoop. In the pics u cant tell. Actually worked with the local track owner to get this legal. Book says you can have one bend in the rear bars.

Nice, that's cool!

I love my cage to death, but I hate having to climb over the door bars every time. I really wish they were swing-outs like yours!
