I don't think there are any around here. There have certainly been some in the past that should've had them like C3C5's old truck, but somehow they get away without having one.

I'd like to see one too, and see if it's possible not to have the rear down tubes poke out through the cab.

id like to have the top of the cage go over the front seats and the down pipes go on the outside of the rear seat.

I think C3C5 just made a few passes at a time and got thrown out of the track. I'm pretty sure he didn't have a cage.

I've wondered if the rear down bars could be configured to pass thru the cab below the window. Not that I would ever plan on doing it to my own truck, but figured sooner or later somebody would need to.

I would really like to see some pics of this, maybe I'm going to need them by the end of this year...

question: does the cage need to come out to the bed?? or can it be like slowprocess's that is just inside the cab??? I would like to keep it just inside the cab..?
