Spotted this in this month's "Which Kit". Apparently they are supposed to be quite reasonable price-wise. Anyone know of anyone who's got one?

Similar ass end to what I am hoping to end up with.
Very smart looking car though - I dont think the cage would be tall enough though as the drivers helmet is sticking up through it.

Still undecided about the back end, but good to see that someone has the balls to try something a bit different!

to meet MSA regs. The roll cage (lowest point of tube) should be at least 50mm above the level of the seated drivers head IIRC (while wearing a helmet) ... not 50mm below

Not too dissimilar to the rear of a Cobra either, which is where the name derives from I guess.

the cage is very like the striker one (with the elbow bars) but is about 4" too low.

Do you know something about the company or the individual then Matt.

I like the look of the back end but am not too sure about the colour. It looks like the colour that waste thinners used to end up when using cellulose.





Summer's here!!!!
