Greetings all.



I picked up an '85 GTi last summer from a friend. It was originally supposed to be a stage rally car but was never log booked when the cage was welded in.
Unfortunately, it's not legal for NASA or Rally America events because the tubing is too small. I *think* it will be legal for SCCA club racing with some additions to the cage. Tubing size is 1.6" x 0.095 DOM.

I'm hoping guys can help me determine if it's feasible to make this car legal for IT road racing. For sure, the car needs a harness bar and a dash bar. I'm also planning on removing the current seating set up and installing my Sparco EVO2's (I want two seats in there for track days)

Pics are on my Flickr account. I can't post up the link until I've got more posts.

The one thing that I'm concerned about is the legality of the A-pillar/sill design.


Last thing (for now)...is there a scrutineer in the Metro Detroit area I can take the car to so it can get a once over before cage improvements are made? I'm located in Dearborn.

thanks.
