All you guys stating single hoops wont do it, you may be right, and if you want to fit more comprehensive protection thats fine!

What about single seater racing cars they have a single hoop above the driver, and when the cars rolls, hitting wheels, and suspension, this of course bends etc and still has the same effect as a body hitting even though the roll bar is offset, its still above the driver.

My roll bar is of a heavy material with forward and rear bracing, it is strong and has been passed by the motor racing authority here as being sufficient, and after many years of people with nothing better to do than try and outlaw them, I personally fought to have them retained. THE SINGLE HOOP PROVIDES PROTECTION FOR THE DRIVER IN CASE OF ROLL OVER, I doubt whether a full hoop would provide better protection for the driver only, have any of you an argument to support your theories or are you just waving the safety flag. I realise if you take a passenger thats a different story!
