Thanks for your imput. I really appreciate any response I get for the instalation of the safety equipment I put in my car. I've read the rules for the SCCA Street Prepared class, but the documentation I found was vague. Here are the rules I found:
Roll cages must comply with the following:
1. The roll cage need not be removable. It shall be bolted or
welded to the car.
2. The cage shall attach to the car at no more than 8 points,
consisting of the basic cage with 6 attachment points, and 2
additional optional braces.
3. The forward part of the cage shall be mounted to the floor of
the vehicle. If used, the 2 optional braces referred to in (2)
shall be mounted, one on either side, from the forward section
of the cage to the firewall or front fender wells. No braces
shall pass through the front firewall.
Installation of roll cages in Street Prepared cars must follow
the same standards for interior modifications to accommodate
the cage installation as those which are applicable to Showroom
Stock or Touring cars in Club Racing.
If anyone has any better info on doing this correctly, it would be most appreciated.
