SpeedWORKS...Need Some Feedback!
:D
http://www.txspeedworks.com/roll_bars.cfm
If you click on the 2 pics, located lower right, on the bottom and the one just above that, you'll see what I'm spying :D
Looks like the tonneau cover isn't touched and I know this will pass my track inspection and our resident whiner :jester
Looking for some feedback and input, and I'll also be in Dallas in April so watch out :D :cheers: TIA :cheers:

my friend the one has the first one ever done, and the tonneau is touched. however, if all you are insterest in buying from speedworks is a roll bar then service is top notch. shot him an email and i am sure he would give you a tour of it.

Re: SpeedWORKS...Need Some Feedback! (Mean Green 2000)
I just had SPEEDWERKS put in this custom 6 pt bar in my car this winter and they did a KICK AZZ JOB! The bar is first rate custom piece and they do put on completly new hinges on the tonneau top and its operates completely different from stock but just have to get use to it as it is a close fit from clearing the hoop for removing the top and putting it back on (but just have to get use to it).
THEY DID AN AWESOME JOB and the bar IS FIRST CLASS! I don't have any pics but go see THE ONE's signature as he has great pics of his. I also had them install dual 5 pt racing simpson harnesses and those are awesome also.
BEST OF LUCK!

OK, at CI 4 in BG this May, when you slip up and run a hungover 13.9 at 105, I'll stencil this thread topic id number on your hood for you.:D :jester
BTW, Keith up there at SW does the roll bars I think, you may want to talk to him too.
