Hey, thanks for the honest opinion.

How much would a cage like the one shown above run, but with a more legit side bar.

^^^^ hahaha yea so when you get T-Boned ya gonna take it straight to the ribs,granted most(most) drifting mishaps are at low speed,but almost anything will pass at JD . To the TS YGM, PEACE .IIRC all rules have now gone to 2 door bar minimun for tandem, but thats the standard per SCCA in road racing

If you're going to do it, do it right. If you plan to run tandem, get a real cage and not just something that looks like a cage. There are places you can cut costs in building a car, your safety equipment is not one of them.
