To clarify, the welding skill required isnt what I was warning him against. I believe you when you say you know what you are doing. There are very very specific FIA rules regarding rallye safety cages, and if they are not met precisely, you don't get to race. It's the lack of an experienced roll bar designer that's more of an issue.
