Can the door bars be swing out so that it makes it easier to get in and out of this thing?

Yes. Swing out bars are legal down to 8.50.

The funny car cage is required below 8.50 but as for the funny car cage, there's more tubes required than just the funny car cage below 8.50. 8.49 and quicker need a SFI spec cage.
