This was discussed during my tenure on the SEB.  Yes, you can stiffen the 
chassis.  But if you go above the window sill, driver's shoulders, etc. and it 
starts to look like a roll bar or cage, then it has to conform to the rules for 
a bar or cage.  In other words, SCCA doesn't want some spindly structure over 
your head that could collapse onto you and actually do more damage to yoour 
body than if there was nothing there at all.

IMHO, and not meant to represent the SEB or SCCA.
