hi cage is looking great but did you say you was makin the cage your self if you are great job but dnt want to be a pain but
A roll cage design must comply with the MSA/FIA technical regulations published in the MSA Blue book. It is the competitor's responsibility to ensure his/her roll cage complies with the technical regulations appropriate to the event they are competing in.In order to compete in MSA/FIA events every vehicle, which has a certificated design of roll cage, should have a copy of a valid certificate to present at scrutineering
hope this is of some help dnt mean to be a pain
