there is a difference in a street cage and a race cage,
if your serious about racing it. the cage you would run in it wont be street legal. |

Also I believe street cage have to have no obstruction to the door way...so no cross bar across the door...for quick exits if you get into a car accident.

hmmm is it possible to make the cross bar removable?
i seen these tubing connectors on ebay for sale and would i be right in saying you dont need any roll cage at all to run any time up to a 10?

Cross bars can be removable, but not for ANDRA cages, which 99% of tracks require you to have if running a 10.99 or quicker.
