Hi Glenn,

 

Who is the cage builder you were telling me about in DC ?

 

Thanks

You can email Robbie (Robbie@pipermotorsport.com) with all the specifics and he'll give you a quote.  He'll also likely send you some photos of other cages he's done on your model car.

I'm still on the fence about putting in a cage this winter.  They did 993 for a guy that I know and it was very sweet. The price was very reasonable, and they have incredible turn-around (in-and-out in a week).

Here's a rennlist thread with pics of the 993 cage.  http://forums.rennlist.com/rennforums/sh...light=cage

Piper is THE cage builder in the DC area. He did my Miata cage, and no fewer than 120 other Miata cages. Excellent reputation.

Thanks.  Car specificity is important and I know he has done some 44's.

Mich did the cage in my RX-7. Excellent workmanship. I'd go back to him without question.

 Thanks Jack. 

For some reason I still can't open your video, despite the 7.2 download :X
