Topic: RHD car - just to confirm - orientation of main hoop diagonal

I just reverse the thing, right? Or does it even matter? On Ferdinand The Bug it's aligned normally, but it also has an opposing diagonal rear stay.

Re: RHD car - just to confirm - orientation of main hoop diagonal

The diagonal technically can go either way.  Most teams have the top end by the driver but it will pass either way the main goal is making triangles.  I would probably flip so the end connecting to the top of the cage is still over the drivers head though.
