I was just typing something similar to that, a cage would totally ruin it. It’s a very clean, rare street car, why ruin it just to get a slip of paper with a time on it.

I totally understand where Ray is coming from about the cage. If it were a Honda or F-Body, id cage it simply because they are a dime a dozen, who cares. Although In this case, fuck a cage. Cant wait to see 9s!!

all you need is a roll bar and you can get away with that at LVD. Im sure Bud can make a real clean cage that won’t be noticed.

I think even going for a ride in a 9 second car, cage and harnesses or not, you’d literally shit your pants.

As would I.
