I am trying to decide if I should go forward with the 10 pt for the Dart, or just stick with the 8 pt.  Knowing how much this car will be on the street about 99% of the time I am not sure I want to be bonking my head on the halo, and am not sure how safe it really is in a street car, i.e. head+halo in crash (heaven forbid) equals ouch.   hammer

Whacha think?
At the moment you are bonking your head on the bar, there are more problems than just that to worry about. The cage looks good, but I heard that your rear bars can't be bent to pass tech for anything except for NHRA tracks. I just finished the cage in my car and I did the rear bars straight, but I am also not putting a rear seat back in.

That is good to know. I may be confused with the road racing SCCA stuff from my other car. I have too many things to keep track of.
