LOL at the foot fettishes.

As for the question about the cage. Originally I was going to get a 10pt cage done but its a little overkill as that cage is good down to an 8.50 which I dont ever see the car hitting anytime soon or period, lol.

So im going to go with an 8 point chromoly cage with parachute mount, window net, and so on. Good down to a 9.0

Turbo Elements in San Antonio was supposed to get back with me and email after email they just keep brushing me off. Frustrating to say the least. Hopefully they will come through and have a slot open after the car is finished and tuned to get the cage done before the convention. If not then Ill have to try to scrounge somewhere else to get one done in time. Turbo Elements said they need 3 days to do the cage from scratch so as long as they got a spot I dont see it being a problem. This is one instance I wish I was on the east coast. I would have NRG Tech build my cage if i was out east. I follow their work and they do some nice cages and get them done quickly and certifed on site.

Well the car will be done and running for sure. I just hope to be able to get the cage done in time. Thats going to be the biggest challenge it seems. As for ordering one from mazworx. When its all said and done Cory, the material from mazworx plus labor to weld it all in would have worked out the same as doing one from scratch and from scratch should turn out much nicer and be a tighter fit which is something I want.

Im sure I can find a shop to do it. Turbo Elements emailed me back saying they were going to get me a slot so we will see if they come through this time being that the cars cage should have been done by now as they were supposed to have an opening for me last month.
