Not a problem

But I reckon for a FULL GRP A Spec cage you'll be wanting near 2k if not more.....

Give Danny a ring and get a quote

What kind of cage is that Doug?

If you're doing it, do it properly, and have it through to the front strut tops etc

T45 is the old spec lightweight big cage material. Most club track and rally cars are done with CDS.

WRC cars have gone round in circles, from big cages with big tubing, to big cages and small tubing.

There is no definative WRC spec.

Gp A people refer to as going behind the dash, and group N the nasty ones that come down in front of it.

Were just fitting an OMP into a Mk3 Fiesta at the moment - fits well for Ł300

Trying to build a rally car for less than 2 grand and get it out competing - and that included buying the car and all mods.

My 2nd navigator Mark (Dayle) and his mate Adam (both in the pic)

They are doing most of the sourcing, but so far it has Prodrive seats, new extinguishers / cage / belts etc.

Were just using a lot of trade contacts to help them etc

It will never win anything, but its all fun and they know it
