8.4 ROLL CAGE
vi) Minimum clearance between the topside of roll cage (not padding) and the top of the driver’s helmet to be 55mm, when driver is seated in race car and measured from a straight edge
placed across left to right of the topside of roll cage to top of helmet. All cars must use a minimum 25mm (1”) manufactured high density safety padding under the driver between the seat and the drivers body.
Cars failing to meet this specification must be fitted with a halo welded to roll cage at a minimum of six points as per side elevation view (refer diagram), two head nets – one head
net to be fitted to the right side and one to be fitted to the left side of the roll cage and roll cage padding before being allowed to race unless utilising a full containment seat with
headrest. If needed padding must be cut to allow measuring of head height clearance. In all circum-stances drivers must still use the high density 25mm (1”) minimum safety padding. The use of polyester belts is highly recommended.
