Weld-in Roll Cage

Does anyone make a good weld-in roll cage that is legal for USTCC and SCCA events? I am building a Evo road race car and want a good, safe cage.

Best bet is to find a good shop close to you and have them do it, someone with lots of experience, knows the SCCA rulebook.

Custom Cages out of the UK makes a fantastic Evo cage. Pricey as hell, though!

As others have said, your best bet is finding a professional cage builder, especially as certain classes allow certain cage designs that aren't legal in other classes. For example, some classes will allow the cage to run to suspension mounting points, others will not. If you're gonna build the cage, make the most of it.

The easiest way to find a good cage builder is to go to a local event, and find cars with very well done cages and ask who did the work. If they were happy, they'll tell you all about the person.
