madmonte Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 anyone know the rules for racing a t-top car.car will most likely be a mid 10 second car. ( the 3700 lb. monte went 11.52 with wheelhop and traction problems) right now the car has a 6 point roll bar , and i will be making it a full cage . so do you have to take the t- tops out to run below a certain et.or do they make you leave them in?

502ci Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Are you saying your monte has T-tops or do you mean a sunroof? Either way it is not a issue leave them in, you have a 6 point in there now...a 5 point rollbar is good till 10.00 then anything faster a cage is required.
