this is legal


yours sit much lower. My side bars are the same ones in the pic i posted above. The crossbar though that goes in front of the rear sets can not be removable. even says on wolfe's site when your ordering if you pick the detachable one like you have that it is not nhra legal.

two things make this roll bar technically not legal, the door bars are way too low, and if its chromoly then you need to have it TIG Welded, Mig is only legal with mild steel, but i believe it still can be MIG welded to the chassis, but the joints on the roll bar must be TIGed

I just ordered mine from wolfe today chromoly weld in, low slung side bars, over the rear seat etc. Did you pait it and leave the area were it was going to be welded free of paint then just recoated or paint it in the car?
i was thinking the same thing

George this cage needs to be change i know thats not what you want to here, but if you want to be good for the track you are going to have to moded the thing.

now that you are in the 10s you really need to start reading all the rules they are picky as hell with this stuff. now you start spending money on makeing the thing safe for the track it sucks LOL

and like Ryne said if its moly it needs to be tig

Dont remind me. I ended up paying for a new back section out of my own pocket for his Cobra and I was doing him the favor welding in the brackets. Just my F'n luck.

The cage is a bolt in cage, we couldn't get bolts on the back so we just spot welded it on. Everything else is using bolts.

As for cages, I really like how the wolfes fit and also for the cost I think that they are one of the best on the market. As for anything faster then 10.0's I would highly recomend going to a SFI serted guy that builds cages. As for someone that has flipped a Trans am, I cant stress enough how important it is to have the right safety stuff. Ryne at CMS has a really good cage guy that has done all of cars that he takes to the track. I plan on taking my WS6 to him to get the works!
