Tell me more! I a'm looking at quotes for a half-cage with removable side bars. Who is doing your cage? Makes me wonder, why in hell a half-cage would be illegal, you would think if it is a safety item, that it would be pushed to see more of them on the street. I know 'FULL' cages can block driver vision though.

I think the archaic and twisted views of our state authority is that if you have a cage you will automaticaly drive as though you need one.

Probably the same logic that says you can't drive around with a racing number on the side of your car.;w

The really stupid part about the Cage issue is that if you have a "Rally" car ie you do rallies in it on the weekend etc, you are allowed a full cage even being road registered.

Well that is something I read a while ago....on a "rally" car that was registered....was a Suby from memory.
