if you're doing tandem, maybe u should get nascar type side impacts that come out to give you a bit more side protection.
as for the cardiff, why would the bar be lower than the top of the race seat?? imho the main hoop needs to be higher....and add a diagonal straight to the floor. instead of stopping half way to the... harness bar? sigh.

This is not a cage question, but for you guys with the Kirk roll bar, does it restrict how far back you can push the seat? Also, does the back your head (helmet) ever touch the main hoop?
I'm asking because I'm 6'4". My helmet barely clears the roof interior with the seat all the way back and down. And leg room is already tight.
A racing seat with a Planted seat mount might be a tiny bit lower than the stock seat but if the main hoop is going to limit headroom at all then I would not be able to use the Kirk.

I have the Kirk bar with a corbeau seat mounted about as low as I can get it (cut off bottom mounts, no sliders) and am about 5'10". I can tell you your leg room is going to be tight if you are 6'4".
