Do you have any pictures of an 8 point cage? Looking for a full containment for C7 Z06.

Any up date on the C4 rollcage

I'm still looking for one that won't compromise my seating position. I have a 2006 convertible.

The RPM reduces very little seating position.

Every picture I've seen shows it reducing the seating position a lot. I drive with the seat all the way back at the top. The back of the seat is literally on the rear hatch. And I don't want to ride in an uncomfortable upright position. And I do run the car at the track quite a bit. So I really need to do something.

I am surprised you haven't been kicked off the track yet OR are even allowed to be on the track with a convertible... is it a road course or drag? You will lose about 1-1.5" in seat travel... it is impossible to to have 100% seat travel because of how tight the space is. Here are updated pictures of the seats and rollbar in a C6 Vert.. this is their latest design

I run it at the drag strip. It's my local track. Any other track would kick me off I'm sure.

Your pictures didn't come through.

Man, those seats still look a long way from the top of the hatch. The back of the seats still look 6 to 8 inches away.

If you look there is ALOT of clearance between the seat and the hatch... look more carefully,.. the seats are not moved all the way back

I need something pretty badly. The car not only is a convertible but runs mid to low 7's in the 1/8th. And I could easily get it into the 6's with a few more tweaks. So I am needing a solution in a bad way.

If there is any way you can get me real measurements of back of the seat to hatch lid with the seat all the way back then I will set my seat at that space and see if I can live with it.

Do these convert from say a 5 point to an 8 point later, or would I have to rip out the 5-6 point and install an 8 point if I started to run faster than 10.0?
