The driftireland / DI Motorsport S14 (With TDP.ie & Jap Performance)

for some reason i dont like the cage
to many bars i think and i dont like goin tru the firewall
but everyone to does there thing and if jay is happy he is happy

Every bar has a reason for being there it just looks a little complex compared to the usual drift spec cages!

A proper shell is the most important part of any car be it for drifting or racing as it's the one part that can't be changed

I'm not having a go at you I'm just trying to explain why it's like that!

how much are they robbie for a serious mad cage like that??

[robbie@tdp.ie]

ya i seen proper cages but its not a rally car man its a drift car and i dont think he needs that much stuff in there its just to heavy but as i said if jay is happy he is happy with it

So Peter what is the difference in the type Motorsport. Are you saying drifting dose not need to have a strong cage ?

ive seen serious cages in mk2 escorts going through the firewall and into the front struts towers... thats a beast. this strong will be really strong incase of big impact

[peterhouze]

it needs a strong cage but i think if your goin to spend so much on it make it fit the regs for all competitions so he doesnt have to build another car
as you said its the safest cage in ireland in a s-body and prob europe but he cant drive usa with it and thats where most drivers will end up
im just goin on what was said by a cage builder in the usa and he said forumlad would say no to it

Every car and every cage is different. Base cages for S body's start at €850 and the amount of extra bracing is agreed between the customer and us based on a proper assessment of the shell and the rest of the parts being used.

So your saying FormulaD is the bee all and end all of drifting. Have you been in the USA at a FD event ? Have you worked on cars in FD ?

The formula d regs are retarded!

I don't think building a car for somthing that might never happen is a very good idea.
