So after this whole thread I still didn't see the answer to the question:
can a safety 21/cusco cage work with the softtop?

Got a reply from TrackDaze:
Tae,
That bar would be fine as long as you pass the broomstick rule with your
helmet on. This rule says that your helmet must be below an imaginary
line draw from the top of the A-pillar and the top of the roll bar.

I guess I'm keeping my Cusco 4 point

If you're just doing an HPDE, you'll most likely be fine just with the fact you have a bar. Once you get into competition, however, then you'll start getting some real scrutiny into your setup.

Say goodbye to that secret compartment, now for aesthetics only!
...hope you didn't put anything important in there!
But officer, I swear, my info is in here, but I can't open it because of my roll bar, honest!

Gonna bring this back...
Is there a manufacturer that makes a rollbar that can be deemed "safe" for BOTH track & street driving? Something that all of you would feel comfortable driving to work everyday (without wearing a helmet
) and also taking the S2K to the track on the weekends with. Anyone?

Many people would argue that it is not safe to run a roll bar on the street.
As for me, I'm of the opinion that a roll bar is okay as long as you have a harness to prevent you from hitting the bar with your head in a crash. And if you have a harness you better also have a fixed back racing seat made with the harness in mind.
