IM not geting defensive, but because he doesnt like it, he says its stupid. If you don't like you can simply say " Cages arnt for me", I agree with Alliedcries...I think they look really cool and add some uniqueness to your car..

actually big rear spoilers are still functional in a front-wheel drive car at the track. Additional downforce on ANY tires is a good thing when road racing.

Sure if it was an evo, taking force from your front wheels to your back...You want your front wheels to stick to the ground much as possible...Whne you have a huge spoiler on back, you loose down force on the front in MOTION...

Incorrect. An Evo wing evens out the downforce upon the entire car. A car with no spoiler has a large amount of downforce on the front and very little in the rear (thus squirrely at high speeds). Adding a wing/spoiler puts downforce on the rear without affecting the front. Evens out the weight distribution and makes for a better handling ride.

Back to OT: If you want a cage, I would seek to have one custom made so that you KNOW that it'll work properly in a Ralliart. If you seriously needed a cage for safety, I wouldn't want it to be a "make it fit" kinda job that could fail on you.

"...SOLD IN A RAW FINISH FOR A GREAT RACE LOOK."

WTF!?!?!?


Here's my translation: "...we don't want to put more work into this product so that our margins stay high, so no finish on it, sorry."

BTW: Race prepped cars get a custom made roll cage... oh, and it's painted. The reason for the rollcage to be custom made is to tighten-up the chassis in the right places considering the category of competition, regulations in effect in the said category, the setup of the car and specific goals to be attained other than safety.

For example, if you decided to go rallying in an amateur class, you'd first look to comply with the SCCA or FIA rules, then you'd look to stiffen the chassis in par with where you think it would be most affected by tortion forces in par with the specific suspension setup of that car. If you took the same car, in the same class but with a different setup, another rollcage design might be better for it.

guys.. the evo cages will fit without too much cutting.. you have to remember that they come in a kit form, and the SCCA people will want you to wield it together in car..

and don't get a cage without race seats and a harness, you will bang your head and die in an accident

and don't get race seats with harness without a roll cage.. you will flip and kill yourself strapped in the seat

good emphasis. seats + harness - cage = DEAD ; cage - seats-harness = DEAD
