Why did you choose the Cusco cage? You have a really good serious track build going on here so why not go with a real custom cage? It will be exponentially safer.

No disrespect intended....just my opinion that it's worth it to avoid the Cusco cage for a track car.

Well the reason is that i want something i can remove in the future, ive seen a s2k roll over with a cusco cage and it held perfectly even with the a pillars bent the driver walked out without a scratch. The track i race has a very good run off area so i should be fine, im going with a 9 point version of their steel cage. Id love to get a weld in but im afraid of ruining the car when i try to sell it later down the road.
