Anyone done this with our cars yet? I love the targa top style on cars and am looking into what I'd be getting into possibly. I'm guessing a custom roll cage would probably be good for extra support n such.... Anyone have any comments or suggestions/ideas?

no..not nessarily...with proper reinforcement bars in differnt places..a correct roll cage its actually very easy to reinforce the car...if not better then what it was when it came from the factory....espically if you make your own frame...it soundds like a lot of work but when you have the tools and people with the knowldge and skills you need its not so much out of the question...you guys are too straight forward and not thinking outside the box....define the laws a little bit and engineer something that will work...yes its a lot of time and hard work but its also a passion...you dont do it caus you have to..you do it caus you want to....and i dont want a supra...supras cost to much....maybe not an auto x car but i want to take everyhting out of it and drive it on the street....and maybe from time to time take it to a road corse close to where i live for a little fun....but i seriously doubt i will be competing. Its just a matter of preference guys...anything can be done if you set your mind to it
