Indy Full Cage
Anyone got any suggestions for full roll cage suppliers for an Indy [I'll be calling MK as well].
It's just for road use, so no need to comply with any racing regs.

Try Caged - I was very impressed when I visited them. 01373 452866. NTDWM either.

Don't know if Mark at MNR will fit his cage to other cars but always quite liked it. Slimmer tubes to the MK one it appears.

The good thing with the MK supplied cage,is they will sell you one flat packed,so you can fit it yourself,or have it fitted locally

How come you want a full cage for the street only? The side and front of the halo, and any diagonals in it (as pictured) are very likely to make a
mess out of your head in a hard crash. They are safer in races because you have a helmet, neck restraint and tight belts.
You may do better to have a good rollbar, knee bar and some side tubes for side impact.
Cheers.

Good question. Was really considering it for the safety aspect. I generally wear a helmet anyway.

I wouldnt mind looking into a full cage this season depending how far I want to take things. Very happy with the car at the moment though.
Out of intrest, has anyone done an "outside mounted" cage on a indy. IE a cage that means the front bars do not go into the car against
the dash but mount on the outside.
