Hitting your head on a cage is a lot different then hitting a padded interior panel and obviously is the reason all interior parts are padded to some degree.

A cage in a race car is designed with safety equipment in mind. Just make sure you have that harness on when you go for a ride. Also your seat should have a mount tied into the cage. I do not think most people understand the amount a person moves around in an accident. Without a seat brace a seat can recline. This should be taken into account when considering if your head will hit a tube.

Great build and understand the look and function of a cage but they can be very dangerous when not designed or used with safety equipment. I have had Pro Street cars and every time I hit my head getting in and out I would think damn what would that feel like at speed.
