Has anyone purchased and installed a pre fabricated roll cage for road racing (SCCA, NASA, ChampCar, World Racing League, AER)?

I know they exist saw Jegs selling one. Would very much like to see one since pre fab will save a lot of $ but saving $ no good if the fit is bad

The prefab cages that I have seen are usually for drag racing. There was a company selling a cage that was complete (Autopower?). IMHO, it sucked. Mainly because they are bending the front down bars with the assumption you are keeping the dash. This severely hinders your ingress/egress out of the car. You will be much better just getting the pipes and doing it yourself if you have the cutting/bending/welding tools. If not, there are plenty of shops in your area who can do a cage.

Presently there is a Rhodes cage offered by Summit Racing designed for road racing. Summit part # RHC-0531-DOM. This is $600. Jegs also has a kit. A good cage fab will cost $2500 where I live. I have welding skills in my garage so considering saving money.

2,500 is about right. But I will say you will have a better cage. The door bars on the RHC cage leave a lot to be desired. I would much rather see you with NASCAR door bar to give you extra room.

I would ask for pictures to see what a finished RHC cage looks like.

Just what I need in my race car. Targa top storage.

HA!

i just missed (by a day!) a c4 champ/chumpcar setup on the champcar forum....
