ah thats on the list will be adding more bit's to the cage, another diagonal, the rear strut brace, harness mounting bar's,

thanks for the comments everyone, didnt realise the cage would make so much difference to the handling, it's so much more solid now, cant wait for the 12th of november now brands hatch track day
