Local roll cage fabrication?

Postby 280z-hab » Tue Aug 04, 2020 10:30 am

Has anyone used a local Tampa Bay/Orlando shop to fabricate an SCCA-compliant roll cage? I am interested in a roll cage that will pass the minimum requirements for an SCCA tech inspection. I would rather talk with an experienced local shop that someone has used, can give a recommendation, and were happy with the results.

I searched this forum and came up with a "treekiller" post from 2008 with no links or contact information.

Its for my Z, I am continuing to slowly build the Z to HSR specs that reference the SCCA rule book. I also want to aim for track days and hill climbs someday.

Thank you in advance!

Treekiller moved back up to PA a few years ago.

I don't know anybody who builds cages any more.

Maybe Mike Orgen up in Brooksville across the street from the airport? He was a regular at the Corvette autocrosses, and him and his son are involved with SCCA club racing. Not sure if he did the cages himself but he could point you in the right direction
