It all depends on how fast(quick) you plan on running the quarter or how extensive, if any, modifications have been done to the floor of the car. Here is my rollcage but, I hope to be running mid to low 8's at around 160-165 mph. I want to be safe if anything should happen. It is a little overkill for most.

looks cool, but how do you get the seat into the car, as well as yourself?

Thanks for the compliments guys. The car is going to have an all aluminum big block in it. Should be putting out around 1250hp on nitrous. I've got just about everything to finish the car, just need to get some time to work on it. The seat just clears everything when trying to put it in. As for me, I'm short so I can get in just about anything. LOL!!
