Good question! I did it because I don't want this to be an an all out build for only a race car, and wanted as much protection as possible with out a full cage. The 6-point benefits to me were better interior accessibility, swing open door bars, weighs less than an 8-point and but still provides excellent rollover protection for track days. The 6-point cage I felt was not trading off any benefits I needed and was a balance between safety and usability, whereas an 8-point adds forward "kickers", 10 point adds dash, front roof bar and 2 additional mounts to frame in the far rear. I felt anything more than a 6-point was "too" much structure in the car and I still want this a driver and a tracker.
