Bump...

certifications yet?

[bret]

Still working with NHRA, SFI, and Grassroots Motorsports. Right now we are working with an organization in the UK to do real time crash studies.
It continues to be an interesting journey both politically and engineering wise. No serious roadblocks yet, just wading through the issues as they come up.
Timeline? Any guess would be just that. The only thing I can say for certain is that there is progress every week.

Glad to see the continuing interest!

well the Tiger cage is bar-non to anything on the market as far as i know...i remember seeing the Ford GTR mustang in a magazine and was floored when i saw the cage and thought to myself, how cool would it be to have that system in my T/A. cant wait to order mine but like i said, ill wait for the certifications first cus im gonna be doing alot of Targa rallys so..gotta pass tech.

Are the Mopar E-bodies still on your list or are we forgotten?
Thanks

Thanks

that cage would look sick in a Mopar E-Body !!!

[PT_79_TA_461]

Bump....

whats the news on the certifications ?? holding off on the spending till i know more.

[bret]

Still the same story. SFI, NHRA, etc. have not brought up any objections yet, its really a matter of non-response at this point. I will say that I have not bugged them every day to get a response...more like every few weeks, but I may have to step that up. In the meantime we are continuing to build and sell hte Tigercages for our completed applications...early camaro, 2nd gen Camaro, Nova, Chevelle, and the just completed 2010 Mustang.

Beleive me I am at least as anxious to sell you a TigerCage as you are to buy one.
I appreciate the continuing interest...it motivates me to make another call.

Bret,
What's the straight answer on E-body mopars? I need to decide this very soon whether to weld in a 4-point bar while I have my roof skin off. (it would be easier now). If you do plan on a Tiger in the near future for E-bodies Mopars I won't bother with a weld in since a 4-point doesn't meet any sanctioning bodies anyway. This would be for stiffening only.

Thanks, Wes

I'm at least a year off from the E body. We just finished the 2010 Mustang. Next is the 2010 Camaro, then the various late model Mustangs.
Sorry, wish I had a better answer.

[MoparCar]

Thanks. That time frame would work. To confirm you still have it in the plans for the e-body in the future?

Thanks, Wes

Any news for a G-Body bar? Alot of hungry Grand Nationals out there

[bret]

I just received notification from ECTA [East Coast Timing Association] that they have certified the TigerCage for competition up to 175 mph. http://www.ridetech.com/store/tigercage/

ECTA runs the standing mile event in Maxton, NC a few times a year including the Hot Rod Magazine Top Speed Challenge http://www.ecta-lsr.com/?page_id=69

Joe Timney is the President of ECTA. He also owns Deleware Chassis Works and builds many top speed style vehicles for MAxton and Bonneville.

Keith Turk is the competition director for ECTA. Some of you have met Keith on Hot Rod's Drag Week over the years...He and his wife Tonya run the event there as well.

Both of these guys were instrumental in wading through the details that have allowed ECTA to grant us certification at this level.

SCCA and SFI are next!

Congratulations Bret, huge win for you and ridetech! It seems once you jump thru the first hoop, the others get easier. The Tiger Cage is such a nice piece, I never had any doubt it would be certified.

[DarkoNova]

Awesome! Now I just need to save up the cash!
