Thought I'd get involved here! I'm at a similar stage with mine. I got a drawing of a roll cage from Allan Scott, and will be looking at commissioning one soon. There is a guy in Norwich, quite near to me, who makes them for short track racers, and assuming he can use the CDS tube and work to MSA guidelines, should offer a solution. I'm not ready for the cage yet so will keep you posted. The big boys of this particular industry are expensive, and seem to want to weld it in. |

Bit more done, air box now complete as well.
With regards roll cages, back in 94 when I built Granny Smith (DH8351) I got the tubes from the rollcentre and fitted it all my self. Seen a few bad crashes in the passing years so the roll cage will not be cheap, after all it may save my life one day. |

Hello,
Graham just a thought.. so you may smell burning! just wondering if your man in Norwich would possibly do a small run of them? (Bolt type) as I'd certainly be interested in one and it may reduce the over all cost with a few of them. What sort of spec is your cage? Full multi point? Or if you would be willing to copy your designs (at a price if it's cost you of course )I'd also be interested it that. |
