Roll Cage question
I am looking at running in a few events this year that depending on my speeds I will need either a 6 point roll bar or a cage. One of the events I would need a “New for 2006 - Current NHRA certified roll cage equivalents are acceptable.” Can a cage be bolt in and be NHRA certified or would it have to be welded in? My cars are mainly street cars, so I would prefer not to do weld in cages.
I’m bored entertain me.

Call Ted. 352-588-9621. He builds cars that do 200 at Daytona. He can tie in the frame for protection as well as maximum advantage in cornering. You will need it for Nevada. He's in Pasco County.-Bob

Another place you can go is Dave Pletchers racing chassis in St. Petersburg,FL he races late models. Sorry i don't have any numbers but maybe you can look him up on msn.com or something of the sort. He built a roll cage for my four cylinder bomb and built my race truck. So he does a good job the turn around time might be a while but when it's done it's a very good job.

Hmmm i don't really know but i know i have a Jr. Dragster from half scale racing for sale if you have any kids and want them to get into racing. But he's doesn't do bolt on he welds them in all over and i believe he would know the answer to the million dollar question

All cars with an OEM frame must have roll bar attached to frame
Cars without frames use 6'' square 1/8'' steel plates on top and bottom of floor, securely bolted together with at least four 3/8'' bolts, or top plate welded to rocker sill.
