There must be a pattern you have to follow in building the frame and roll cage. Does the NHRA rulebook spell this out, or do you just follow common sense?

Reason I ask is that I am considering building the '23 T I just picked up into a bracket car, using the 466 Ford I have sitting on a stand. The last serious car I ran was a '32 Austin Bantam with a 301 Hilborne injected Chevy in the early '70's. and I know rules have changed a lot since then.

How do you know how to lay out the cage and all ?

By the way, I ran a solid rear axle on my Altered, is that still legal? I know a modern coilover setup would hook better and all, but I'm just curious if you can still run solid.

Thanks,

Don
