Is there any CAMS documents with a list of roll cage regs for the GC8? Also, does anyone have any good advice for painting the interior once the cage is in?
Sorry for hijacking the thread I just thought additional info is always useful.

I'm sure there is a minimum standard for a cage but it's totally dependant on the class of racing you want.
Ie an ipra cage won't be suitable for v8 super taxis but could be suitible for world time attack level motorsport.

Brad fills out the form that you have to submit to get it CAMS logbooked.

I will be painted it in non metallic 2pac including the entire inside of the car.

The CAMS manual (available online) has all the regs. It is not vehicle specific though. Good cage design has little to do with the CAMS regulations though, the manual only covers sizes and angles and minimum requirements etc.

You can purchase from CAMS a document called a 'homologation paper' This is vehicle specific and documents and specifies all the series production parts that equipped the car. It also shows specifications and pictures of special 'optional' parts and the location of the manufacturer's team built rally cars rollcage attachments. Copying that rollcage design is a good place to start. Chatting to people in the know and looking at well built rally cars is also a good place to gather ideas.

Painting a caged shell is a bit of a nightmare, getting good coverage on all surfaces is a challenge. Don't attempt a clear over base or metallic paint would be my advice. The doors all glass and fuel tank are usually removed for the fabrication and painting process. Ideally the car will be a bare shell on a rotisserie. Some teams go to the extreme of taking cars further down than a bare shell, removing roof, sills and firewall to strip out excess weight before putting back the bare minimum.

Looked into bonds roll cages but didnt like the stories and ill fitment that people were talking about. Also, having a bolt in cage in the blue car, i would not compete with a car having a bolt in cage. This is your life your dealing with.



Started talking to custom cages uk as Jester put me onto them. Organised a fabricator to weld it in and had a order of 6 cages ready to go. They fucked me around after I asked some pretty valid questions in regards to the cage so I just gave up with them.



After talkoing to Rob Parker (prototype) and Karl from Rally Action, Brad Stacey's name popped up numerous aoccasions. He does LF's cages and has some serious rap within the communtiy.



I'm not saying he is the best, but i wouldnt go to anyone else now. for under $5k for my cage (and i mean well under) it is incredible...

I wondered how you went Craig. Good to see you've got the cage sorted.
