Roll cage time, HELP, dont know what to do
So last time i went to the track i ran an 11.4@ 125mph. Time to get a roll cage because the car will only get faster from here
my problem is, i dont know how to go about getting a roll cage, and i cant weld so making one on my own is out of the question
can someone help me out please?

autopower makes bolt in and weld in cages. otherwise a race shop with a tubing bender can do it. If you have more money than time. just drop the car off somewhere and have them deal with it. Otherwise strip the car yourself if you want a full on cage. but you need to decide how fast you want to go and make sure they build it within spec for what time you want to be certified too

I would be worried about those cages just for wall thickness. This would have to pass tech which requires them drilling into the cage and measuring the actual gauge. But good tip either way. For that price i would just spring for something known like autopower
