Window Net and Mount w/funny car cage

Do you have a funny car cage in your car?

I was looking for mounting ideas, I saw a double buckle on on a few Pro Stock cars and I was wondering how they attach the bottom.




Thanks!

Yes I do... I have a 3/8" rod in the lower... it
has a sleeve welded to both ends where the rod slides
into them with a hair pin clip at each end... I dont
have any pics of the net up
The rod goes through the bottom of the net(they sew
a fold in the bottom for it.. if you mount it that way)
EDIT
The sleeves are welded to the chassis... sorry I
didnt say that

If you get a chance can you include a picture or two?
Thanks Again!

Might be a couple of days... I'm a little busy trying
to get my new car done but I'll see what I can do

You can get all the stuff you need from RJS racing...
if you make a pattern/template for them they will make
a custom one for you... they have the mounting kits also

Here is mine. RJS custom made mine from the template we supplied to them. For the purist I even re-used my Factory Chrysler flip style buckle.

Note that there are some rules on window nets location. NHRA does not specify where the net has to be but the IHRA rulebook states that the front of the window net must be within 2 inches of the rearmost point of the steering wheel. Most people probably don't care but I am a stickler for meeting the rules.

Also on the mounting... it cant be outside of the cage..
so watch where you put the mounting points... I seen
a guy ahead of me in tech get bumped due to his being
mounted on the outside portion of the tubing... they
dont want the net/and mounts ground off if you flip
up on the side and are sliding on it... that part
is a logical rule
Also if you go with one style net (I forget if its
the ribbon or which) that it doesnt expire for SFI

Can get you a pic if you like. Just have to ignore all the fire extinguisher dust/residue
