No cage. That is going in this winter along with proper seats and harnesses. Last year it was stock seats and belts, but given how fast I was going that really wasn't a great idea. After seeing one of the other very experienced drivers crash his Cayman into the pit wall at 80 mph with stock belts I knew it was time for a safety upgrade.

As for the "Ice-mode" it occurs when you get front pad fade, causing the brake balance to go wildly rearwards and totally freaks out the ABS system. This is the reason I run the sintered pads and a biased front/rear setup. Running the same compound front and rear you have to be very careful to not apply full brake pressure until most of the forward weight transfer has occurred.
