Default c5 convertible full cage is in!!!

I want to thank Marty Danko and Dave @ M.D racecars for doing a fantastic job installing the cage and getting it certified to 8.50!!

Ive seen many cages going through the dash and they chop the dash up and try to patch it up by putting a plate on.. NOT M.D.racecars these guys know there ****!!

I have pics but I need to send them to someone in an e-mail and they will have to put them up!!

Some one send me there e-mail so you can see a quality job!!

They also have 17 inch wheels/radial that fit a little different. ((Stealth 99 and Ellis are running the 17s..))
