I like to keep the impact as far away, with as much time/space to crumple and absorb energy as I can.
"not as stiff" is something made up by some internet forum moron. there is no quantifiable difference in stiffness and when you see how big and fat the bars are you will agree.
if youre really obsessed with this then do the nascar bars plus a straight bar along the floorboards.
i didnt like RJ's design from an engineering perspective. any corner is inherently weak by design, especially if its a weld point.
