Re: 1997 GSX - DD, RR, and 11's.

Looking for a discussion on cages.

I'm torn on what I want to do for a cage at this point in my build.

I want to be safe and I run my race seats.

With my size 6'4" tall and now 270lbs. And reading up on cage threads. I almost feel like I'm limited to 2 options.

1)only put in a 6pt maintain factory interior
2)basically go full race car and gut everything, modify the drivers seat position to give me clearance for width as well as extra headhood clearance. Which I'm stI'll doubtfull I'll get even wit removing the headliner and lowering the seat as far as I can.

Another option would be to remove the sunroof/roof skin and go 1pc roof.

I know this car is for road racing. But I still love /enjoy driving it on the streets from time to time.

Thoughts on how/if a person of my size will fit with a full cage (AER spec)
