Default My C5 5-Point RollBar

Just had a 5-point RollBar installed in my C5 from Carroll's Rod & Racecraft. Leo and Bob were great to work with and Leo did a fantastic job. A very neat and clean job. See the below pics.

Wow very nice Dave. I thought for sure you would keep it bar free but now that you have...you will enjoy wringing it out ever pass.

Congrats.

Nice job by Leo and Carroll's.

See you guys in a week

Looks great Dave!

Your choice to use Carroll's Rod & Racecraft was a good one, Leo and Bob do fantastic work.

I agree. Dave has been a serious contender the last 2 seasons.

BTW, congrats on the rollbar.
