    Very interesting, please keep the build updated. Are you running without a rear window?

    It is also very dangerous for the driver himself... I wouldn't recommend you to proceed with that modification...except if you're going to use it strictly in the track.

    Thank you for your concern.thats a myth.a cage will protect a driver.i am living proof..as for this car , i thought it needed it, it is big inside. ,and i am focused on being comfortable. Me personally i like the look of competition

    The cage looks neat no doubt. Very cool project.

    If you are dead set on it I'd put some proper bar padding or try to tuck it into the headliner as far as possible.

    Like others have said, without a helmet you may be gambling.

    ooohhhhh I love this.
    I'm assuming no sound deadening to take in all the sound of the that glorious V12?
    Are you having it as a 6 speed?
    What paint color?
    What's the plan for the interior?

    Cant wait for the first video!!

    In a race car you have a lot more than just a roll cage as driver protection. This will no longer be a legal street capable vehicle for so many reasons if you build this properly. Educate yourself.

    About 90 % of my cars have roll cages. If you notice when lambos crash they get totaled pretty easily.hence the rollbar.
