Go with Wolferacecraft.com for the cage. I just ordered mine and for the price I dont think you can beat it.
They also have a sale going on right now as well so you should check into it.

With a roll bar, the rear seats are usable by small kids. By about age 10, they're tall enough that their head could hit the rollbar in an accident.

Good luck ever getting into the rear seats with a bar. A rear seat delete is pretty much a must...no reason to keep them in there anyways

Some cages have a removable rear cross bar, which will allow access to the back seat.

You need a 10 point for sub 10.99. Wolfe only makes a six. I ordered the Wolfe and will modify it to a 10 if the tracks give me ****. I REALLY don't want a 10 but I guess I'll keep the top up most of the time if I do because I'm making a push to put her in the 9's.

IIRC, They may not be NHRA legal. I made mine that way and custom fit the rollbar padding to hide joints and bolts.

My kids just crawled in when I left the cross bar in. They're kids, they don't care.
