View topic - Mk1 Escort Roll Cage
Oopps....just sat here and thought, the side intrusion may be in the way of the window winder
Also, forgot that I need a second set of seat bars for the driver's seat so my wife can drive too....here we go again!!!!
All work on hold this week due to 40 year old Escort getting stuck in my eye (safety glasses were on!). Having an emergency department Doc literaly scrape my eye ball with a hyperdermic needle was blooming aweful
You can just see the winder on the far left. That intrusion bar went down to the seat crossmember so any further rearward and the bar would have gone right over the top of the winder.
Dont know if any one else has picked up on this but the new National rules for modifications to light vehicles specifically bans 6 point roll cages and anything with front intrusion bars.
There is an exception for vehicles that are dedicated competition vehicles that meet the requirements for specific rules in each state relating to concessional or rally rego but this is not sorted up here yet as rally rego is still up in the air (this is different from S plate or club rego).
There is a bit on this topic on the NDSCC and Brindabella sites.
This sounds like the usual cart in front of the hourse routine from the state and fed goverments however until this is sorted I wonder of our local engineers are going to sign off on a blue plate for a full cage with anti intrusion bars?
we are lucky in SA with a well sorted Dedicated Rally Car rego scheme.....I believe roll cages of any sort have been banned in road registered cars here for many years.
the adoption of the new National Code of Practice isn't until July 1st in Qld. That's why I'll be picking up the Mk2 very early in the new year and getting the cage approved under the current system.
Mk1_Oz,
would you have a copy of the SA Rally Rego document? It may assist with our situation up here! As for the window winders, what regulator might fit if going electric? Not sure it'd save weight, but would be pretty cool rolling into control in an old rally car with electric windows!
I have tried to find info on teh SA scheme on http://www.transport.sa.gov.au but cannot. Here is teh application form but it is probably useless to you..
why not just shorten the winders? or if you want to get super technical make them ratchet like a ratchet spanner? don't put electric windows in it they will add weight and i'm guessing will have a short life span in a rally car.
True INB. Would the cops know the difference between an AASA event and a CAMS one???? I am not sure what proof has to be given when using teh car for an event. Anybody know??
When Walker Chassis put my cage in they tagged it to the A-pillar. They didn't however tag it to the shell anywhere else. Is this a problem?? Should I put some tags in?
I would have throught that a tag or two between the main hoop and the shell would stop the shell moving independently of the cage.
