+1....if you get rear ended and your head hits a steel pole, then whoever built your cage is smokin too much crack.

tubing is not notched it those pics, but I already took that into account. The main roll bar was not pefectly in the right place in those pics. I'll load more pictures tonight once all the notching and rear bars are cut and tacked in place.

Thanks for the lesson , however I think safety isn't the OP's concern... I'm assuming it's more along the lines that he's going to make the car too aggressive to drive on the regular.

We need to order dimple dies s.knoop. We need a .75 die.

This picture is from the 2010 camaro hankook drift car competing in formula d next year.



link to a few dies.

Anyone have experience on these dies. I want to order a good quality one right off the bat. I dont need a whole kit, but maybe something like a .5, .75, and a 1" would do for now.

Haha yeah I definatly care about safety but the car will be blatantly illegal so daily status isn't happening. I think it will still be a blast to drive to drift water in it haha.


Danny I tried to call you but I think your phone is dead. Hit me up before you weld anything haha.
