Caged body

RichardM · 04-15-2008, 09:11 PM

I have a 1995 Mustang that is fully caged. The problem is that the cage is 1.5" diameter, .095" wall chromemoly. Is this legal for any thing that you know about. To start with, it is not legal for Rally America performance rallies. Maybe NASA AI compitition? Or NHRA? I don't know other sports very well.

Sounld like someone was building a drag car. It should be NHRA and IHRA leagal, but I could not tell you what performance level it would be leagal for. There are so many certifications now days.

Not roadrace legal at the weight the car would run at.
Too small diameter tube for NASA,SCCA.

Thanks racer99. That is the exact problem I had with rallying it both with Rally America and NRS.
