Roll cage taxi bar height
snowman9 - February 20th, 2012 at 07:40 PM

Hi everyone,

I was over at Bond Roll Bars last wk, and Allan suggested that I contact a man by the name of Schultz (head scrutineer for this Saturday's meeting at the Creek) regarding the taxi bar (horizontal hoop brace) height from floor in a Beetle.

Does anyone have this gentleman's contact details ?

Thanks :)

Rule book is clear.
"Taxi bars should be positioned to support the rear of the drivers seat.
This bar must be installed no higher than the drivers shoulder height
and no lower than 4 inches(100mm) below the drivers shoulder height."

Tube can be 1 1/2" x 0.065" chrome moly,
42.4 x 3.2mm C350LO mild steel,
or 1 5/8" or 1 3/4" x 0.102" CDW or CDS mild steel.
