Bloody hell, remind me not to go to a track day with you!  I've only seen minor offs at all the days I've been to!

FFS get some CDS notched and weld in harness bars to your diagonal hoop.

Do it properly!

Oh and whatever you're doing with the cage, make sure the mounts for the feet are made up and welded in properly, too.
