If 924 & 911 can do it, why not a 951

No bar for mounting the harnesses?
I am surprised that the rear shock mounts aren’t tied in (unless it is going to be a pure torsion bar suspension). Also – no diagonals to the front strut mounts?

Yes the bar to mounting the harneses is just behind the main rollcage and fulfill with the angle to wear the hans (for Rallye here is 20 degrees).

but in some cases it will transfer damage from one corner to every where like in Eric bana's case . you hit a rock or tree the car looks repairable but its trashed
Tell us a bit more about how the cage was designed please.
it is very different
The head room looks great the ROP looks great none of the 4 corner's are gonna fold in..
side intrusion looks to have a bit of a hole but if you are just going to put it into the trees i guess it will be fine .. there genrally is no body driving into the door in rally hey ?looks like it will be OK to get in and out of .
I would box the foot wells a little i have herd o a lot of lower leg injuries when the wheel intrudes .

looks great did you look at that 944T rally car in the stutgart museam?
Sincerely, I dont have enough information about this rallye car, because the only factory rallye car was the 924 turbo (walter rohl) and I am trying to get info from this forum to built the car. The 924 as you know was 2.0 liter with the Turbo in the other side and I think that regarding suspension, chassis, etc there are more possibilities at the moment.

there was a semi-factory red 924 GTS tarmac rally car which competed in 1982 Montecarlo Rally and finished a highly credible 10th overal.Was incredibly fast especially in the corners.
