[quote=superclarkey;605225]Thats not a problem, i can apply for approval via a mock up and technical drawing to achive the status, i just don't want to build a fully spec cage out of 1mm to be turned away.

its a very hard area - building a safe cage from small tubing is much harder to do and ultimately has to be traceable- as you know, a MSA ROPS cage would have both a certificate AND an identity plate i dont know what costs are involved but certainly this would be way beyond virtually everyone and of course if you were serious about this route it would be essential to talk to the championship scrutineer in detail before doing anything

I know what your saying, it a hard call to make, but if i come up with proper paperwork i can't see any reason why i couldn't enter if its good enough to enter a WRC rally. (they have trees to hit )

As for front window, is the argument down to "structure" of the roof or what ? (out of interest)

No the biggest consideration is the material itself and its thickness. what thickness were you thinking about?

Are you a listed scrutineer in the blue book out of interest ? if so what region are you ?

yes - national B and environmental based in south east - happy to talk direct

thank you for your responce tho
