The body mount location really has me wondering how to do it AND tie it to the frame per NHRA rules. Last racing season, I hit antifreeze on the big end of the track left from a Honda. I kept it tight, but it made me think a roll bar is smart. It will be some time before I break the 11.5 bar requirement.
When you get the cage in, I'm curious how it changes on road vibrations and noise. I drive on the road more than I go racing.

Damn Ryan its looking good son. Too bad you couldn't have kept the dash, but I think it was pretty Fked up from tearing it out LOL. I changed jobs recently so I probably won't be heading up there any time soon, maybe I'll go check it out at the track one weekend.

I'm still saving my pennies for a build one day.
