    Really awesome build, and if you ever get tired of it as a sim, you can throw a motorcycle engine behind the seat and finish it as a dune buggy.

    Wow!!!! You have the exact same kirkey seat and harness as I got. I would totally buy this cage from you. What's gonna be your asking price? How far you live from Chicago? To anyone thinking this setup is too close and compact, your wrong. In a little 4 banger race car with a full cage and detachable steering wheel this is exactly what you would look like. The only thing I would say is the steering wheel diameter is too small. I have the TMX Pro and the one thing I wish is the steering wheel had more diameter to it. Overall you nailed it sir BRAVO!!
