Did you go with removable door bars on the Wolfe? Do you plan to weld the main hoop to rear bar connections to make it legal?

It's legal for the mile as it is and will never be legal for NHRA because the limits of a 6-point is 135mph or 11.00. He would have to have an 8 point to satisfy them with what his car is capable of.
