CL600 roll cage pics
I have the new tranny in the car and I am waiting for a beefier driveshaft to arrive so I turned my attention to the roll cage. When I am done the cage will be certified down to 8.50's in the 1/4 mile. I took some pictures of the cage while I was building it before I sent it to be powdercoated.

I have had several guys PM me for updates so I figured a few of you would like to see some of the progress.

If the halfshafts hold up the car is a few passes away from breaking into the 9's.
