[Tigers] Show Bar

That's where the rules come into play. I wanted helmet clearance, so I
tipped the main hoop rearward some. Then, in order to get a reasonable
angle on the rear stays, I anchored them to the inside wheel wells near
the top of their arch. The various bolt-in bars have the rear stays
running to the rear corner of the parcel shelf, which makes them run at
a too-close-to-vertical angle, especially if the main hoop is angled to
the rear.

My main hoop touches the soft top midway between the two lateral braces
on the soft top. In order to fold the top you have to tip up the forward
brace before you bring the B-pillar arms back (or before you fold the
side-window arms), or everything gets tangled on the hoop.

I don't think that the hoop is allowed to have reverse bends (by most
rulebooks), because that would compromise its structural integrity.
