Topic: 2017 Rules updates info request
Any chance of getting a heads up on the upcoming years rule changes? Angelina my 1987 Alfa Milano has been running in the series since 2008 and as such we started out with a Autopower bolt in cage. Through all the years cage rules changes we added floor spreader plates, door X bars, welded up all the joints, added a dash bar, triangulated to the hoop and a lot more.
I've heard that the bolt in cages are going to be done away with and as such I am looking at a heck of a lot of work in my severely compromised chassis to cut out the old cage and construct a new one. Very likely the car will fold up in two and crumble into Italian rust dust when the cage comes out. Nine years and 20,000 plus racing miles will do that to a 30 year old car.
So I might just have to go the Viking funeral route with Angelina and start over. But if this is going to come to pass I'd like to know sooner rather than later so I can get the team to help with the herculean task of prepping a new car. ( Alfa of course)
So rules updates?
Anyone else in the same boat?

25,000 racing miles in 32 races in 10 years. Yes its the same motor. Tell me again how Alfas suck? Update: Big moneyshift = new motor
