Default Forged Performance: SPOHN's Custom FP Spec 4-Point Cage

Last week, Chris dropped off his 370Z to have us fabricate and weld in a custom 4 point road racing cage. After joining us last year at a Chin Motorsports event at Road Atlanta, he quickly become hooked on track days and performance driving. With plans to do a full competition spec 6 point cage, we designed this 4-Point cage to allow for the easy addition of the front portion once he makes the move to full blown race-only car.

Keeping the cage only to the rear of the driver allows this car to be safely driven on the street without a helmet. Chris made the job easy for us, and brought the car completely stripped and ready for us to begin our work.

All of our cage fabrication takes place at Forged2 which is located 3/4 of mile down Cobb Parkway from our main location. This location houses our Fabrication, Motorsports, and Product Development Departments. Chris and Daniel are our two in-house fabricators and have years of experience in motorsports fabrication, welding, and metal fabrication. When you look closely at our cage work you'll see we use only the best and strongest materials and anchor points and very tight fit ups. We use properly cut and shaped 3/16th inch steel mounting plates, 1.75" .095 DOM tubing and perfect welding techniques and equipment. With the owner planning to paint the cage himself and mount his 6-Point harnesses we are looking forward to how the final finished product turns out.

Looking forward to a successful track season, and I am sure he will post some pics of the final painted masterpiece very shortly.
