@simondalangpan So you don't think a more stiff chassis is an upgrade? Yeah I'd love to drive a car around a track and watch it destroy itself with all the frame twisting and stresses. Wouldn't you?

[simondalangpan]

The Cage & Support weight more than what was taken off... Was that really an upgrade? NO

@Fabulaos05 nets dont prevent injury due to a side impact like nascar bars do lol...they only prevent from arms flying out of openings

@Fabulaos05 The stronger the sturcture of the car the better it will handle, and most people are willing to trade some weight for handling, aka every true race car.

I love this project! However, I have a question regarding the roll-cage. Isn't it a little bit over done? I mean, the whole interior is stripped, which is cool, but all the steel pipes that goes into it doesn't add weight?

I mean, I understand the use for a roll-cage, but are some of the crossing really necessary? Like, those at the doors, can't you just use nets? Wouldn't going across the frame suffice?

Just asking, not bashing.

Looks like a great piece of craftmanship, if anything a bit over engineered!
