The cage that I am looking at has been crash tested at 200mph in a 993. So I know it is of good design and construction quality.

I don't see how I was incorrect. I asked if porsche tested thiers. You can't deny that the majority of cages out there for NHRA, street cars, and a good amount of the silver state classic cars etc are not crash tested, but built to certain specs.

Carl makes a great cage and continuously improves it based on what he learns from seeing cages react in ORR high speed crashes. for instnace his cages have a bar across under the steering wheel, ever since he observed broken legs and feet from foot box compression in high speed rollovers.
no other builder to my knowledge has the experience with practical cage success and failure in traumatic crashes. i would buy from no other.
no web site, they're on meade ave in LV, if you cant find the # in info, i'll dig it out

you wouldn't trust the guy Roland has build his cages? You are telling me this guy has more experience w/ crashes then guys out there building pro street cars, etc? How many ORR crashes have happened, how many of them had his cages in them etc?
Carl may make an awesome cage and know his ****, i'm not taking anyting away from him, but so do a lot of others.

Roland recommended me a guy, and he said he was fairly local, he never said anything about Las Vegas unless i'm mistaken, which I may be. But I'm still gonna say there are plenty others options out there that are on par w/ this guys work. He's not the only one out there building quality cages.
edit: going over my email he definately recommends a guy named Craig in Bellflower. Same guy that built his M5 cage.
I'm not trying to start an argument, everyone finds their guy and sticks to him, you guys are no different the chad backing up his liking for s car go, dedication and quality is what keeps these guys in business
