Title: Show your rollcage? Post by: -Alex- on May 20, 2011, 13:37:34 pm I would like too see installed rollcages on a street/strip/track or race cars.
I had rollcage on my car, but bodyshop guy suggested that we make better. So we removed old one and i ordered some rollcage tube , so we can start bending tube and fitting new cage. My cage is primaly for added safety at street/strip/track use, no plans start to drive at any racing class :) I had the rear of cage like this, but planning to make straight crossbar between rear tubes, where you can install belts. I was wondering that is inner fender strongh enough for cage mount? (http://imageshack.us/m/850/6950/02092009076.jpg) Title: Re: Show your rollcage?

Here is my former cage: (http://imageshack.us/m/19/1229/p1010081sf.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/m/4/8407/p1010079fj.jpg) Title: Re: Show your rollcage? Post by: thejohn66 on May 21, 2011, 23:09:54 pm (http://i657.photobucket.com/albums/uu296/thjohn66/DSC01847.jpg)

Rear bars extend down to brace the frame horns. Title: Re: Show your rollcage?

Post by: neil68 on May 22, 2011, 02:25:17 am Yeah, I think it just looks that way from the angle of the photo...my shoulders are just slightly above the seat top when I race. Having said that, I'm looking for a race seat to replace the stock low-back...
