Never bring a knife to a gunfight.
Game over. Good night.

Sorry Tim, I have the 2005 IHRA rulebook right here, and I have posted what it says!
THat or any other info is outdated!
This is what I am saying...IHRA CHANGED the wording and no longer says REAR BARS!
Why do you think they would change this??
There is only one logical explanation....because they DO NOT REQUIRE REAR BARS...only adequate braces!!
As I said before, no two bit jackass like you nor some fly by night website is gonna tell me that I can't read the damn most currrent IHRA rulebook as it sits right in front of me!!
GOODNIGHT PUTZ!!

Tim, I hope when you are defending someone in court you dig alittle deeper into the facts, and don't rely on some hoagy website for IHRA rules!
Try getting a current rulebook, before trying to prove anything!
BTW, It's on page 121!

Now answer Sal's question -- is there an image showing a roll bar?

I can neither prove nor disprove your assertion, as I do not have the rulebook in front of me. But the more logical explanation for the revision (assuming that there is one) would be to make it clear that all braces must be of the same size.

I did answer Sal's question already!
The image above from your website does appear in the 2005 IHRA rulebook with the same writting except for a line about the cross brace diameter!
That image in no way implies that that is the ONLY way a roll bar is to be constructed!
The rules do not refer to the illustration for further desciption of said bar.
No where does it say that the roll bar must look as pictured!

Sal asked you at least twice whether there is a picture of a roll bar in the 2005 IHRA rulebook. You have not answered the question. And if you think that you have, please humor us and answer it again.
