Have you looked the FIA requirements for roll cages? It would be nice to have a compliant design.

Any chance you could manage to shape the top cross like the caterham in the pic above?
I do like the 2 half moons. Can you send me a quote for the full light weight cage in flat pack form with side bars, rear cross in the hoop and the above mentioned half moons upper. When are you starting to fabricate these? What's the thoughts on deliver/collection?

Taken all comments onboard from the above and should have read and digested it better.
I did not take on board it was totally external and went into "safe mode" thinking of what would fold and what would reinforce. Comment on rdodger's post,possibly the top of the rocker box will be the first point of contact in the event of a roll and I think the blue book measures it from there and as I posted previously the Teamtrain Roadster had one built to that spec.

Anything fixed to the side chassis of greater diameter and substance must add a greater safety factor as the length of the sides are possibly the weakest point in respect of accident damage at the sides.
If you want safety,stay in the womb.
