The thing is will need to redesign our fuel cell guard as well.
Still, would rather not have to change anything if we can get grandfathered in.
Consider adding a second pair of rear down tubes in front of the rear tires? I ASSUME that would be OK. I don't know why the rule came about, though.
Our cage came out of some former race car of another make that happened to be the right size for our car. the rear cage design wasn't what Lemons required. it had more of a second halo going back to where the roof of a sedan would end, then tubes down to the rear strut towers. we still have all that structure, PLUS two additional down tubes at about 45 degrees from the main hoop.
