We sell these kits but I have never seen one or heard comments from a owner with this kit.

From my email to a customer today about this kit:

Best regards,


Anyway I wanted to share it with the EG community and see if anyone here has one of these kits and would care to comment on it.

Or if you want to comment on it?

Sounds like a sweet kit to me!

yea you really need pictures

15 point dosent mean anything. also didnt list what type of metal used, ERW or DOM tubing. ERW isnt sanctioned for any road racing anymore (if its a new cage) and i think they can be grandfathered in for only a short time.

the more mounting points dosent mean its any safer than a better designed cage.

 

There is no better cage designer than Safety Devices. Each cage like the one above has been test by FIA/MSA in the UK and issued a homologation. It does not mean squat here other than it's a great cage though.

 

15-point? Umm, that's not going to be legal for the popular low-cost RR series here in the US.

Max for SCCA SS and IT is 8 points (6 points plus 2 optional braces). IT cars usually double as NASA HC cars too.

I'd hope this is at least 1.5"x.120" DOM tubing as well. And this is made in the UK and specifies EG6 - does that mean the top end of the diagonal in the same plane as the main hoop is going to attach on the right hand side?

Is there a picture of this thing?

riiight, anyway lets see some pictures because its not even legal for road racing (like Targa250R mentioned)and im willing to bet its not that safe to begin with.

 

Second time this guy has come around. I say ban.

Dang dude that's harsh! I am a HT sponsor and this is not a for sale thread I was just looking for opinions from folks who have this cage.

To others with questions about Legality I will say that it can be had in many form including a SCCA spec but now I am broching on a sales thread. IM me.

I'll get some photos up as well in the next couple of days since we seem to want to see them.

 

Does it zip-tie together, or what?

 

weld in is better. bolt in isnt that good imo.

 

looks like it is missing the diagonal for the main hoop

which is important

and the anchor to the seat belt hole looks weak, and dangerous,

that will easily break off, and pierce you in the neck/head area

 

i like mines better
only 1200 bucks and it's scca legal (already passed tech)

what do you think?

 

damn.. looks good..
i wish i had one

 

I wouldnt put a BOLT IN cage in my car if you gave it to me for free

 

IMO you should be going all-or-nothing with a cage. If you need it for the kind of motorsport you're competing in then get one, otherwise leave it for the 'proper' race cars. In a road car a cage can/will do more harm than good in an accident, unless you drive to work in a harness belt and helmet....
Myke that cage looks good, does it go right thru to the front strut towers??
