Roll Cage


The Cage I bought for this car is a Prefabricated Weld in cage from S&W Racecars. Working with limited tools (2 angle grinders, tape measure, level, and a Miller Mig Welder) makes the job very tedious. It took me three full weeks to finish. S&W's cage kit fit very well but the next car I build I will be changing from the front Halo and A-pillar style construction to the front down bar that extends from the front footwell all the way back to the top of the Main hoop. With the Halo setup its difficult to get the bar close to the roof to get me most headroom possible (very important in the F-car platform) This forces you to move the seat lower by cutting the factory seat mount out and fabricating your own mounts.
