Maybe, but the regs are there to make safe, reliable cages based on years of data, so they're a good guideline to follow.

Stops people making s**t like this:



Which'll basically just fold up and trap everyone in the car when you crash.

Hmmm then why in the hell are people on here putting 4 points in with a pair of fixed bucketseats and NO cage... does that sound smart to you?

Thats even more dangerous when you flip the car - DEAD MEAT!

I was amazed as well they really look good, only thing is the flash f**ks up the centrepart of the rims, it looks odd in the pics

Fitment is really perfect!

Really? I dont think ive seen many cages on here that are s**t, wouldnt say as high as 9 out of 10 are bad.

(My half cage was s**t, but learnt my lesson from that and got a better one, granted its not as proper as I would like, but its all good for what I want it for)

Laugh my ass off at the pic Phil posted though, even I can see that one is properly pointless

With 4 point harness your upper body and head is held in place, so if the roof comes in enough it'll f**k your spine up.

With a 3 point belt and normal seats you get pushed sideways instead.

    It takes far less to roll a car than most people think. I've been in a car that rolled over and it was only doing 10mph around a corner at the time.
