Well I see the bolt in cage as a way for some people to take it back to stock if they ever want to that. The only bolt in cages I think worth getting are the Autopower one since they will pass almost all the Regulations for most types of racing and the Safety 21 bolt in cages like the one I have. I still just can't quite bring myself to do a Full Weld in Cage on my car I wouldn't have a problem at all if I had a salvaged titled car Depending on how Crazy I do end up going will determine if I do a Weld in cage or not

Since ya didn't claim it lol I Win
Ya I didn't think so on the Evo's Maybe My Dad was thinking of a different car or something I will talk to him again today when I go over to his shop to get the machines today

Well I know that in all the cars that I have been pulled over in for fix it tickets (3 different cars that all had Cages) The Police didn't say anything about the Cages I don't know for sure tho about what would have happened if there had been a accident with a car with a cage they may have said differently tho I think that if a car has a proper WELD IN CAGE that it is going to be much safer than a normal car

I don't think there is a law, but having a full on cage would be completely idiotic.

Bolt on cages are usually all that is needed for the people doing it wrong to begin with. If there isn't a bar in front of you, it's not a real cage, whether bolted down or not. And if there is a bar in front of you, you shouldn't be driving it on the street, unless you're wearing a helmet.

A full on track cage would be dumb to have in a street car, but I don't think it's illegal. A chassis bracing roll cage wouldn't be bad, one that just sacrifices the rear seats.
That is a bummer about Winners then No one has ever told me that they have slick cement everyone just said its better than Speed Street is all

The only cage I wouldn't ever buy is the Cusco 6 point BLUE bolt in one That is a garbage cage I think..

I have Driven a Full Race car on the street so what are you talking about Jake It isn't that bad at all Cage, no AC, Windows don't go down or up because they are bolted in place, welded in roll cage etc....

I've driven several cars with full cages on the street with no issues, once you are belted in your head shouldn't be able to touch anything harmful.

Fender rolling & Tire clearance

You guys know any shops in the Orem area that know how to roll rear fenders?

Also do you think I will have any problems clearing 18x9.5 +28 with 255 or 265 tires with and without the fenders rolled? The rear fenders sit at about the middle of the rear tire sidewall as is with the race suspension so I really don't have room for the tires to stick out past the fender.

You should just buy mine!

It put down 470 on the quick engine break in tune. I'll be getting her back in for something closer to mid 500s here soon.

Yeah, it is waaaay better than speed street, but still slick indoor cement... not asphalt or grippy stuff like Miller.

You will have no issues, till you crash.

Good, I hated those *******s.

Then what's the point of a helmet for the track? Or airbags for the street? I wouldn't say shouldn't, but there's only a small chance, but it isn't a chance I would dare take. 10 mph fender bender could wind up killing you or doing severe brain damage.

Where you met me the other day when you were selling that wing, two doors over where my evo was is Munoa Performance, that is Adam and he could do that for you. Now if that car has a vesko cage in it then I'd be surprised if that's not already done
