They liked our cage last inspection we had (summit point '10.) Though i agree the door bars are less strong when bent like this
Its usually necessary to have 3 bends to fit them. Nascar style door bars help absorb impact where a straight section wont, it will just be strong. A 3rd bend will weaken the bar but it is necessary in most cars. Keep the extra straight leg (that reaches the main hoop) as short as possible. A 4th bend may pass if its absolutely necessary and very short (not sure though.) Basically you want as few bends as possible. The main hoop is just to the right of the edge of this pic.
Tieing tubes in like this
will help give them some strength. Keep the door bars as close as possible to the b pillar and the main hoop. Put the main hoop only as far back as necessary. The bottom tube is a straight shot from the front tube to the main hoop. A lot of the impact forces get transferred to the bottom straight tube along with the main hoop and the front tube in a door bar impact so if you want it strong with 3+ bends in a door bar dont skip out on the bottom tube or the vertical tie tubes.
I have also seen where the cage builder adds a spreader plate with a little foot up to the middle of the bottom tube to help keep it from bending in a crash. I dont know if it would be considered an extra point, not that you need to worry about that for Lemons though.
