For good reason.  There was plenty of debate about that a few months
back.  I won't rehash it.

But *only* if you are driving this car on the track exclusively and with a
racing seat and 5 point harness.  Rollcages are *not* for street use.  The
bars are entirely too close to your melon.  Belts stretch (even racing
belts) and so does your body, so bars that are several inches away at rest
can become deadly in a crash.
