Probably a good thing she's asked for a cage, only a few thousand dollar investment. Yeah these shit boxes are old and rusty, even though they might visually look good they've had salt plastered on them.

rarely these days, it usually just has jerry cans LOL But at some point I will put in a baby seat, just when we need a 2nd car (rarely).

@robbo_rb180 pretty much if this was individually bolted down OR welded down the driver would have been fine Man, after reading parts of that, I want a cage now.

Read half of the report so far, very informative. Scary the roll cage failed and literally bent like a stick of butter. Also what's shit house was the barriers weren't even concreted in properly, was a clusterfk of things.

Yeah that's probably why they're hesitant, however I'm not going to be professionally racing the car. The cage & harness is purely for a bit more safety over the OEM gear. Will get in touch with them in the future, see if I can get something that works for added safety with the option of keeping the car street friendly when not at the track. And you're correct, I don't need to comply with regs as I'm just a casual track racer and not competing

Trying to find a cage with works with the entire interior with a removable cross bar and removable harness bar. Seems no such thing exists. AGI might entertain the idea of both parts being removable but they aren't keen. So for now, I will be installing a harness bar so I can use a harness with my fixed bucket seat instead of a normal seatbelt. Here's hoping it provides a bit more safety compared to a conventional seatbelt if I ever bin the car at the track.

A bit off topic, in RWD (especially seen in slammed S15s at the track using factory torsen/helical diffs) take a corner hard enough and it dog legs and you can't put power down. But yeah for spirited street use, roll racing, drag racing as intended by the OP, you'll probably never encounter those scenarios where one front wheel is off the ground.
