Iīm not sure. The cage was made for circle track and i didnīt want to cut some of the bars off.
Material is chrom-moly and some of them are metrical, so they are thinner than the normally used inch ones. Not the best way for a drag car, i know.  Grin

I think that you need some more tubes for a safety of your feet. Like this.

@ 181: got some of CV Products, the other ones from someone on eba.y.
@mikko: thatīs right would be better, if the wheel comes inside. Perhaps we put something in there.
