Road Racing / Auto-X Roll Cage

I was eye balling the CE roll cage, but after some research, it looks like that cage wont do much in the event of a serious roll over (god forbid). Also, I can verify this as soon as a get the rule book, it looks like that cage isn't goign to be legal in most road racing.

For those who road race / auto x / etc, and have roll cages, could you post some pictures of it please? It looks like I'm going to be making my own, and just wanted to see what everyone else has done.

Thanks.

Re: Road Racing / Auto-X Roll Cage

You will most likely have to build your own to be legal for road racing. Most of the kits that I see use ERW tubeing.

SCCA and NASA require DOM tubing. The NASA American Iron rules call for 1 3/4 0.095 DOM tubing.

You can start here and download the rule books.
