I'd like to welcome our latest sponsor, 21st Century Street Machines (http://www.21stcenturystreetmachines.com/). I'm sure everyone is up on their work - Payton King's 69, the 69 with the C5 IRS, etc.

Welcome aboard, Ed. :thumbsup:

For the second time........Welcome Ed. Without the support of you guys, (Our sponsors) It'd be difficult for the board to grow as rapidly as it has.

Now if I could only get some more info on that trick roll cage....... :D

I hope to do a story on that cage sometime.. Ed sent me a ton of pics and it is pretty freaking sweet.. My wallet is happy Penny already has a cage.. lol..

The way they do the front pillar is cool.. almost organic to the car.

Very nice looking cage :thumbsup: That's tucked in nicely and will be mostly out of view from outside the car :cool:

Glad to see you here Ed!

I was glad my car was leaving the shop before the IRS was all engineered out. I thought that I was going to need to have my pay checks direct deposited the the 21st Century account.

I am guessing that there is more cool stuff coming.

To answer questions in regard to tubing diameter and wall thickness. I imagine things can change and the different classes can definitely have different standards and the standards may have changed. The cage can be done in any diameter and wall thickness. Our experience with doing David Farmers C6 World Challenge Corvette specified for that SCCA event a 1 and 3/4 .095 mild steel or a 1 and 5/8 .125. The Nascar classes 1 and 3/4 .095 mild steel. Most NHRA classes we have had experience with specify 1 and 5/8 .125 mild or .083 chrome moly. Our cage in the photos is 1 and 5/8 .125 DOM mild steel without tight radius bends which can compromise wall thickness. We can accomodate any other specifications but again I defer to the expert in my facility who says our cage will stand up to most demands put on the street cars we produce. Ed
