Why no cage? I'm building a street car now, but I'm planning to do a cage, but I've struggled with the decision. I'm just interested in you reasoning as to why you're going cageless.

Thanks,
Jerry

Basically gonna be a art morrison max-g chassis which has outer rails and inner rails and alot of crossmembers making it plenty stiff.Also want the interior space not to be clutered by a cage and the body and chassis to be sep units,just a matter of preference Jerry,I have a full cage in my race truck,thats where its needed this is gonna be a sunday driver not a must.Later Rich
