Roll cage progress

Almost done putting the roll cage in, quick little vid cos people like vids. The car is a 1993 Honda del Sol being prepared for stage rally by TLAR Engineering. Cage is built from scratch to FIA Appendix J Article 253 specifications using 1.5"x0.095" and 1.75"x0.095" DOM mild steel tubing. Close to 100 linear feet of tubing stuffed into that little car.

any estimate on the cage weight? are you interested in doing a cage for a fellow del sol racer?

[rallysol]

@ghettoracer I used to know what the cage added, but couldn't tell you now. I can tell you that the car weighs as much as a showroom stock VTEC Sol.  I'm always interested in more fab work, don't get enough.
