Default Cost of roll bar install?

Any guesses as to what a roll bar would cost for a '14 Z51 A8

Also, any suggestions on someone who installs them? I live in Chicago but would be willing to travel to someone who does quality work
On that speed you can get a bolt in, Pull out the interior as far as seats & carpet goes and the back carpet. Drill some holes put a plate on the under side cage on the inside that has a plate on it bolt it in & put the car back together.

It you pay for it I would say 800.00 to 1200.00 labor. This will do more to where you take it for the install. Robert

Check with the Track where you plan to race.

Earlier I went to the local track and asked what the limits were .

I was able to run my Z06 Vert without a rollbar.
11.30

Joliet, according to reputation is a stickler on the NHRA rules stuff

Per the NHRA rule book, Street Legal drag racing section.
The car can run down to 9.99 and no more than 135 MPH.
The only mods allowed though are DOT tires.
Snell 2010 or newer helmet required.

These rules apply for the Street Legal racing only, usually a T/T Friday night type of deal.
