Izzy's Custom Cages - SCCA/NASA Mazda Spec Miata Roll Cage
St. Louis Region SCCA member Glen Johnson brought us his Spec Miata project for a full cage installation. Glen's a little bigger than the average SM driver, so we built the cage to fit his needs-from the 3 bar NASCAR bar to the recessed main hoop.
A Simple Time Lapse. Enjoy!
1.5"x.095 DOM was used for all of the main cage elements. All triangulation and non required bars use 1.5x.065 to keep weight to a minimum. A 3 bar NASCAR style bar was used on the drivers side to provide the most protection possible. Large "Taco" Gussets as well as a support tube were used on the drivers side A pillar to provide extra support at the bends in the event of a roll over.
A custom seat back brace was built for Glens Miata. Easily adjustable and as easy access as possible for a 6'+ driver in a sardine can Miata.
