Consolidated 991RS thread

I was flying over the weeds, 4-5' airborne I did think about roll bar, then looked, ah.... I haves a full on cup car welded in cage... the I calmed down make sure I'm nor hitting things straight on and just went for the ride.....
spectacular flight, as all the corner workers still talk to me about it today, that's four yrs ago. " u flying today, john?"....
a full cage provably too much, might as well buy a cup
but a roll bar I think adds to,the car and even looks nice.
not endowing gmg or rss, but they have some examples u can see as ideas. now this new car has lots of alum on chassis, so structural attachment may be different than steel,chassis cars. u need to do so e research on that. personally I like what oe club sport bar did, bolt to rear tower, a plate (I actually use a large box section) welded to tub then bolt fromt leg to it. welding sounds like some sort of taboo sexual activities, but there are oem roll bar out there in 997.1&2. take a look. it's not what u think. it's really nice and row cars had it as oem.
a good fabricator can duplicate and improve upon that even....

Thoughts on the Agency power 991 harness bar obviously not as nice as welded or even GMG but perhaps just as a harness bar for 4 or 5 points?
I feel like if I go full roll cage and swap seats in the GT3, then I really should just wait for the RS. I know safety first but seems like porsche is dragging their heels for us early adopters.

I wasn't really recommending a full cage unless you can handle it. I do think a rear bar is better than nothing, and should be considered if a full cage is out of the question. Just make sure it's going to hold up in a roll.
Even the Jeep Wrangler comes with a roll bar. More than likely a roll in a Jeep would be at a slow speed offroad. You could roll at well over 100mph in your GT3.
