Roll bar questions?????

Make an imaginary line from the top of the bar forward to the top of the hood. (in case the front a pillars collapse in a rollover) if she is low enough to clear that, I wouldn't worry about it. I rolled my mustang when it didn't have a roll bar (on the street) and the back half of the roof stayed up and only the a pillars collapsed. The front of the roof came down until the car was resting on the hood. It would be the same with a car with a hoop, the roof would cave in until the hood hit.

I'm just thinking down the road when either she's taller or someone else is driving and there's all these extra bars in the way and have to be removed again.
