I did not ask him about cost, I think should be a one on one thing until he becomes a vendor and post up on the forum...sorry!

What did yours run? If you don't mind me asking :)

I would definitely be in on a group buy.. Perhaps a specific "group buy" thread should be started to get attention of others interested

I bought mine from a fellow forum member, but I will send you a PM.

I agree and I will see what Dave wants to do as I am just trying to facilitate an opportunity for the community.

How long will your car be at SZ? I am curious how much leg room you have to give up since I sit with my seat all the way back right now

It will be there until the end of the month maybe longer. You have race seats so maybe 1 or 2 inches. The biggest thing that limits leg room is the reclining of the seat as the head rest will hit the top bar.

RPM Rollbars has signed on a vendor and they are just awaiting approval and the formalities...:tup:

Nice but the rear mounting doesn't make sense. The fender well isn't exactly a strong point. Going to the upper tower would of been safer and better. Every Z cage I've seen goes there.

Its also clearly a custom full cage. Big difference.

Bacause safety is relevant! Selling a cage stating its fully legal without testing and being different than every other cage built by professionals should bring up a red flag. I'm all for it but state a big warning disclosure. To me this isn't race worthy. God forbid someone get hurt. Mounting points to thin sheet metal even with a wide base won't last when it's your life in a roll over. The towers have 2 layers of the same thin metal (1 layer is the fender), plus a layer 3-4 times thicker, plus the same thick *** metal as a reenforcement bracket holding the tower to the frame! For the love of god look how thin that fender metal is! If a car rolled over and slide and the roof collapses and the roll bar catches that fender won't hold from keeping the main hood upright. Those mounts will punch right through like a knife through butter. Hell I can push my tinsnips through there and start cutting it out. The tower however is actual frame that you can see is almost 1/8" thick based on the bracket shown. I'm not dissing the builder. It just needs adjusted slightly higher to the tower is all. Simple simple fix.
