                Yes it is. I did not put it in for looks and to add more damn weight.


                If the rear crossbar can be removed it is NOT NHRA approved. Mine is all wleded and one piece.

                  that bar isnt legal if you are faster than 11.00

                    From my knowledge, a 5 / 6 point is good up to a 10.00

                    11.49 1/4-mile (7.35 1/8-mile) or quicker:

                    -A 5-point minimum roll bar on a fixed roof car (t-tops okay as well if in place while racing) from 11.49 to 11.00 (7.00 1/8-mile). If the hardtop / t-top car has un-altered floors, firewall and frame rails (wheel tubs are okay), then the 5-point roll bar is good til 10.00 1/4 mile (6.40 1/8-mile). Convertibles require the 5-point bar from 13.49 (8.25 1/8-mile to 11.00 (7.00 1/8-mile). The rollbar must be constructed of minimum 1 ¾ inch o.d. x .118 inch wall mild steel tubing, or 1 ¾ x .083 chrome moly tubing. The roll bar can be bolted or welded to the floor, see diagram for specs. Roll bar must be padded anywhere the driver's helmet may contact it while in the driving position
