Apparently it worked just fine, I just wish the rest of the truck did that well.
Pat, thanks for the lead.
I have a chassis guy working on it as we speak, I am sure Mitch is good. We are scaling today and doing other stuff. But the cage is next on the list.
Know what you mean about the tow truck thing... pre fab does not exist.
Since it's cert. to 8.50 I don't think it expires according to the rule book.
Not only can he get in it. He can get out dang fast also
He as tested on it prior to running at Bonneville last year.good for him!
I am sure the Western Witch makes sure he is safe.
looks like i am headed down to 8.50 cage as well, with my MPH and ET i can't get around it.
Wanted to keep my leather seats....:baby: whaaaa. :rofl:
This is out of control.... I need another truck.

iirc Mitch made it so the leather seat could go back in for daily driving. To be honest with the extra LSR supports Pat put in it really isn't practical. Too much damn metal in it.
Personally, I'd put in a rollbar at first that you could upgrade to rollcage. Rollbar is legal is to 10.00. I had to put in the cage for LSR, otherwise I wouldn't have.
Yep
...the kids and I shoveled the driveway tonight.You guys should post pics of this LSR cage...would be interesting to see.

Here you go
http://www.duramaxdiesels.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6912&highlight=cage There was some changes made to the seat now and also the door bar is now removable. I still need to get a big piece of foam to sit on since I can barely see over the dash Just to correct my earlier post. According to that thread it's good for 3 years.
A "normal" engine is not going to survive 900rwhp for 90 seconds straight. So we are doing some work to it to help it live.
So the un-normal engine isn't ready to run and you couldn't wait until it was done to race it, so you put in a normal engine?
LOL, they have like 5 or 6 engines. Its a race team, you have spares
Just wondering why someone would put in a lesser engine.
Probably because a "lesser" engine would work better than an incomplete engine:baby:
