    Best Location for diagonal bar to meet main hoop...??

    Looking at several different designs and Im just putting in a 4 point. I have read that putting the diagonal at a certain spot can actually hinder the structural integraty of the cage. So Im wondering... where? I believe the SCCA GCR states no more than 6" down on the hoop... (that would be quite silly imho) and I believe there are no other attachemnt rules?? Someone should post the rollbar section from the GCR :) that would be slick. I was thinking right after the top bend on the horizontal section, either that or dead center in the bend. What do you guys do? or think i guess
