There is nothing to be worry about, we have Autodesk Inventor Professional 2012, Robot Structural Analysis Professional 2012, Mechanical Desktop 2010 and Autocad full system 2012, as you can see we can even make the 3D drawing of the whole car frame and run a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to verify any stress and strain in the frame and the weld, is this enough for you?, i hope that you know what is all this software about. Bring you car tomorrow

LOL WTF does any of that shit have to do with building a nhra cage ? and no computer will tell you what suspension settings will work. I work in THE MOST HIGH TECH CHASSIS SHOP IN THE COUNTRY ! And we dont use any of that shit to build our cages. Many other parts yes. Tobias does do good work seen a lot of it at the track. I cant speak to your work because i have never seen it in person. Not saying you do bad work or not. but the fact that you tried to throw out that you have a bunch of cool guy computer software, that dont mean shit, does concern me a little.

+1, a computer can't teach you how to make a rollcage. Tobias don't use no computer also. Just for fun i googled those software and couldn't find nothing about them getting a cage to cert.

And just a FYI it is impossible to "copy" a cage from chassis works. The bender that they use uses a special bending process that pushes the metal to the bend point, keeping the out side of the bend just as thick as it was before it was bent. So just because you buy a chassis works cage and bend it the same dont make it the same. unless you have a million dollar bender

I believe you are refferring to a mandrel bender. The software is helpful in showing the customer what the final product will be and is much cheaper than trial and error by fabbing products, but in the end you need the nhra book to show you what they expect and a fabricator that's up to par, so software or not, i'm sure you both do great work, not everyone runs their business the same.
