guesseting is taking perforated steel and welding it from the forward bars to the a pillar. pays dividends in chassis stiffness, but not so much to the cage. you do not get to lose a bar, as the bar is much stronger than just a 1/16" thick peice of steel with holes in it.

i didnt see anything specific on this, so i assumed it went under the attachment points clause. i just wanted to make sure, as i have seen it on some cages (like Andris' car).
