Hi Jon,

I think a lot of the team use a roll bar, its definately an option to us anyway. I think a lot of people buy the losi roll bar kit and throw away the bar and bend there own, this is very easy to do and takes 5 mins.

I personally used just spare parts i had laid round in the garage from years gone by and bent my own bar. 1.2 mm seems to be the most common sized bar used but obviously different thicknesses will provide a different result, i would say anywhere in between 0.9 and 1.4 mm is sensible. Piano wire can be bought from most model shops.

As with all the optional parts, you don't "need" it, it's just an option to try something. you might find some drivers using them and others not at the same event, it's personal preference like anything else.
