"15.6.18:
I'm guessing what that means is for cars that have ERW cages before 4/30/03 installed then they are grandfathered in? What happens if you've been building the car for the last 3 years to compete, is it still grandfathered in?
Jake,
All I can tell you is that at the time 4/30/03, I got in just under the wire to get mine inspected, and a race log book issued before the cut off date. So the car was able to be grandfathered in. I was using ERW, which was legal at the time. I had worked on the cage for quite some time and didn't want to have to remove it all, and start over. I actually didn't have time to add some xbars as I had planned, but will be doing so now that I'm getting settled into a new residence.
You can check with your local region, but I wouldn't expect a very promising answer regarding granfathering after the fact.
