Since the SCCA does not require a roll bar for Solo II, any street bar
is "SCCA solo II legal".  Basically, that means nothing.  It could be
made of tin foil and still be legal.  So ignore that quote and compare
the different street bars on material quality, if it allows the top to
go up, etc. 

Note that a real roll bar (ie., one that would be legal for SCCA racing or
Solo I), cannot be made for the Miata that will allow the top to go up.
It would have to be be too tall.
