Hi, I am drawing up my full rollcage for my MK Indy was wondering if anyone could help me with the MK factory rollcage dimensions as shown below.
I am 6 ft 1" and am assuming I would fit under a standard MK rollcage with a helmet on?

Thanks in advance
Chris

on an MK, it is possible to have the front mounts outside of the cockpit, being tall, my knees would interfear with it.

Thanks for that welderman.

Kriss - I am planning to mount the tube inside the chassis but then bend the tube outboard of the chassis once I get to the top rail to give more elbow/knee room. I think thats what Mk do themselves.

Hi

I have said it many times but if you are ever thinking of using it under MSA conditions. Then i would do the research on what is allowable and what is not. All is clear if you consult a MSA blue book.
research how big a degree bend is allowed in the top tubes and what is allowed in terms of bends on the front roll-hoop and especially how it is mounted to the chassis.

Cheers Matt
