Nacker,

What kind of Roll Cage do you have? Is it custom?

I'll reconnect it and give it a test run on a closed course.

It's just Autopower 6 point with door bars. I have the bars for dual bar with the upright connectors, but I don't need to worry about adding them yet because the events I run only require door bars for tandem.

Honestly the cage really fits nice and blends in really well. I can't count the times "That thing has a roll cage?!?" has slipped out of the lips of people who see the car. I have all the interior trim besides the sun visors and the "Z strut bar" cover plastic in the rear where the cage mounts, and the carpet has just been lifted to make room for the bars. You don't ever notice the things missing. Other than that, the car is factory on the inside.

The only 2 complaints I have is that the A-pillar bars don't go through the dash (like every autopower that I know of) and for the passanger, you have two options:

No leg room and slightly reclined
Little leg room and straight up

My friend 6'2" 160lbs
His knees on the dash and nearly sitting straight up on the way back from California to Illinois.
My g/f who is roughly 5'8" 110lbs. has no problems though

It came with the car, but I'm sure you can buy it from autopower.

I don't really have any more pictures of it, but if I think about it I'll snap some more.
