Message Heres what I got from Art today:

Adam,

If your car is a licensed (has tags/plates) street car with street DOT
120MPH+ speed rated tires, no roll bar is necessary unless it is a
convertible. A roll bar would be required if a car is a convertible vehicle,
regardless of whether it is a street car or not. If your car is a "track
car" or one that has racing slicks, then yes, it will need a roll bar
meeting SCCA specs too.

The "factory roll bar" that came with a 300ZX convertible is not sufficient
to meet those SCCA regulations. If your car is one of these cars, you would
need a proper bar.

However, I would not suggest that you install such a bar because it will
have a negative impact on the value of your car. The only option I can offer
if your car is a convertible is to drive someone else's car in the track
event or withdraw from that event and concentrate on having fun in either or
both autoxes where a roll bar is not required for a street tired car.
