Door Bars fabricated!

Granted I'm vintage racing and the racing is not at the same agressive level of what I encountered on the "Setup" tv show or even your local NASA or scca race. But the single door bar always made me uneasy and was never a permanent solution.

I decided to maintain the main tube already welded in and transform the existing tube into a door X design. This should once again help with chassis stiffness and more importantly safety.

I will be adding dimpled "taco" gussets to the X as well as many other parts of the cage.


Now for the driver side I decided to run and additional tube connecting the center of the x to the door sill tube. This should help in a side impact. Also as I said I will be adding many gussets...

So now I'll feel a bit more safe in that seat.....
