Roll Cage Fab Locations

So I'm looking for an updated list of good scca approved roll cage fabricators in the area. Preferably no farther than oregon or eastern washington. I'm also looking for one that does chrome-moly welding with recommendations.

Thanks

Also:
Any reviews on http://www.racetechfab.com/?

Dug this site up on a 4 yr old thread.

don't go to racetech unless your planning on racing next year,Russ likes to take your money and not get the job done,and may take him 6 months to actually work on it.

Give All Wheels Driven a call, they are in central Oregon. They prepped my friends rally car with a roll cage and did a damn fine job. It didn't take too long either.

Could also try Linder Power Systems in Richland, WA. He's fabbed some pretty nice cages and I'm sure could do something SCCA spec

Check out www.DGEMotorsports.com. He is in Vancouver WA, less than a 10 minute drive from I-5. He has custom built cages in road race, drag race, off road, Bonneville Salt Flat and even Silver State Classic. He helped build Chuck Shafers car, which holds the speed record in the Silver State Classic at 208 MPH. http://www.sscc.us/results-record.htm. He was the designer of the very popular Miatacage roll cage for the spec miata series.

What crack are you smoking? SCCA and Drag cages are 1 week. Wow, what a freaking comment that is. I would suggest never coming by here or we will may get tangled up.

May I suggest to look at all the cars that came through the doors, 1 to 2 weeks, Dale B got his cage, seat, and interior sheet metal done in 9 days. Does any body else even offer that?

10 years in business, all cages pass tech, 29 cages this year plus 3 complete chassis cars. I guess I better slow down!

Actually I never say David at Schaffer's Shop. I saw Pat M, Kevin K and Me. Kevin and I built the majority of the C Schaffer's 318 car. And Salt flat, and NHRA, and projects that use chrome moly 4130. I transported the car to all the test days and even to Eli. I pre-teched the car for the race and buckled in Chuck and Gary.

I would suggest maybe getting the info complete and accurate if you guys are going to slam me!
