Show us your Roll Cages Thread

[Wünderwolff]

I'm in doubt to install a cage and have been looking this forum and others for pictures on the different possibilities in Roll Cage building. I doubted a bit on this being a real high performance topic or rather a Cal-Look thing, but then I thought, maybe real lookers do not have cages    Still my aim is looks as well as function. So anything goes from single person hoops to full blown prison cells.

Oh, and maybe add the info on what your car is capable of and, important, legally allowed to do on the track. Say run Sub 12's, you need a cage that ties in to ... (not that I will be running anyway near 12, but this should benefit everybody  )

So, pictures, pictures, pictures.

We went the opposite to most and had the cage tied into the body shell.We also had the funny car cage are added too for safety, does not matter how fast you are going rolling is rolling (god forbid) 

The angle on the door bars are also really good for me due to my back

Not great angle pictures but you get the idea!

It's not been tagged as the car has only been run at informal rwyb meets

Very important if you want to go racing . the rules are getting stronger during the years

I had a RLR cage for my car - I thought it could have been better to be honest. The shoulder bar was completely the wrong size for the main hoop and some of the other bars needed so much trimming off that they just didn't fit as I'd hoped. Other bars were only just long enough. I appreciate that my car was chopped and so the proportions were going to be thrown off by the shorter pillars, but even so, I wish I'd just had a cage custom built. By the time I'd bought the kit, fitted it all and tacked it in place, paid someone to Tig weld it and replace a couple of the bars that weren't right, I could have paid for a much better, tighter fitting cage.

This is the one recently completed for mine:





Nothing too complicated as I still have to get in and out. It's tied into the body and bolts through the floorpan and there's also extra bits underneath from the rear bars that tie into the frame horns to keep it all nice and stiff.

What's it going to be capable of? I'd say scaring the crap out of me
