[QUOTE="sunburned, post: 7783656, member: 30336"] 4 point cage, no questions. If you have proper seats and belts and all that, no way your head will hit those bars. If you are really worried about it, pad them up. Just for reference, our Baja SAE car was completely built out of 4130. Frame, suspension arms and everything else structural made of chromoly. It was the lightest and strongest steel we could get at a decent price and to meet the rules. I think the rules actually specified that you had to use 4130. SAE isn't going to take any chances with a bunch of college kids racing wheel to wheel through the woods where there is a good chance you could hit a tree or roll over at speeds up to 30mph. [/QUOTE]
