Roll Cage Tech Question


Enzo

Recommended Posts

I am currently installing a roll cage in my 944S2 to run in GTS2 this upcoming season. Per the rules I have 2 horizontal doorbars on the drivers side (1.75" x .095" like the rest of the roll cage). Between the upper and lower door bars are (3) 1.25" dia vertical tubes that connect them together for additional reinforcement. Is this legal?

I thought there is something in the rules stating that additional "reinforcements" must be of the same diameter and thickness as the main cage.

 

I can cut them out and I know the car will meet the rules (but will be less safe). I cant seem to get a clear ruling on this. Can anybody help?

 

Picture is attached.

 

Thanks,

Enzo

Disclaimer: my non-official opinion only, and I do not run in GTS.

 

 

See CCR 15.6.17

 

That paragraph specifies that all required bars must meet the minimum dimensions...not optional reinforcements.

 

The GTS rule supp appears to refer all cage questions back to the CCR, so the CCR would govern here.

 

Also see 15.6.2 for a caveat.
