Well the time has come. Not only to become safe, but legal. We're having an 8.50 certified cage put in the car. Fully custom built by a good friend of ours. I dropped the car off this afternoon and Dave sent me this to my phone towards the end of the day. Although scary to see it's just another step we need to take towards our 8 sec pass with the stock 6 speed. I'll be sure to continue posting pics and updates on how the car is coming along.

It's more about safe then legal. You guys are flying and we'd all hate to see something bad happen.
Your car rocks!

Yeah.. The dash on these cars is ridiculous. It will all be put back together just as it came from the factory. So we'll still have A/C, Sirius sat, full interior. Just adding the cage for safety.

Very nice!! I like how he put a couple extra bends to get the rear hoop to fit real tight....That's a great idea!

Oh Yeah!! Check out how sick this turned out. I'll be picking the car up tomorrow and can't wait to see it in person. Big thanks to Dave Dodge and Jeremy from UPR for helping us out. You guys are awesome.

Jared, are the rear bars run threw the rear speaker panel, or do they stop and a separate piece continue on the backside?
