I am a circle track racer that got the bug helping a friend who races best in the desert class 8
I read the posting on the rule book but was seeking clarification from reading more of the threads it looks like i can use any solid axel or brake set up i want as long as its the same style as factory equiped

I did have some questions for the cage i understand it has tube dom no mild steel and needs to be 2 inch but i was trying to figure out how they expect the cage to look some seem very intricate while others seem basic

The cage must have the basic components, front and rear hoops, rear diaganol bars, and at least one diagonal in the rear hoop or on the down bars. The circle track specs usually call for the same basics. Most are also using the cage for spreading spring or shock loads, so they get more complicated, but the basic structure must be in there.
