FYI only like two of us have an Alston Racing rollcage. BradWS6 had one too. Our cages were made from custom bent chromemoly. I wish I had kept mine rear seat friendly. I cannot put the back part of the rear seat back in.

John who welded the cage for you and where is alston located and do they have a webpage?

Thanks... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I would love an alston roll cage (6 point) I think It is so much better looking than the wolf roll cage. I don't like the idea of having the cage by the speakers. If I am correct they have to take the speakers out with the wolfe cage right?

BIGBOS

I just looked at the wolfe cage again, I like the look of the 6-point chromoly one, its only $420 bucks too, and an extra $85 for swing out bars, thats the route I'm going to go, now I just got to come up with another $600 to get it welded... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Alston will be like $1000-1100 out the door.

They make the cage from scratch and install it up in Antioch IL.

WHY would you want more points than you need? 5 points a legal to like, what, 10.00000?

It's your car, do what you want. I like having the back seat in as well, keeps the noise of the Mufflex 4" down while around town, and I love it for the entertainment value.

Plus, symetry is good, I don't have to worry about one side getting droopy in my daily driver. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I had Alston Group Roll Bar in my 30TH,Pro Stock has there Roll Bar too,he would know it they have a web site.I had the chromoly 6PT Cage.I did have a Wolf Roll Bar,but It didn't pass tech at HRP in Houston.The side bar was too low on a TA.They measure to make sure its legal,all there roll bars are #,and installation was top notch.Nothing in the interior was scratched.Look to spend $1100 like John said for the Bar and sub frame conectors installed.The Formula will have there Roll Bar in it too <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> All you need is the safty belts,fire jacket and helmet.Alston group only does Roll Bars and suspention.There not the cheapest.

Another alternitive is Hacker Joes Brother.Paul G has there Roll Bar and it looks great too <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I did the 8 pt because I plan to do do a full 10 pt in the next 12 months.

www.AlstonRacing.com

Ask for Mike Ruth, he did the cages.

I just dropped the car off with full interior and then picked it up a week later.

I am 110% pleased.
