Should be some on here: http://www.spokes.org/

And of course: http://www.scca.org/

Autocross is called solo2 in case you don't know where to look on the scca page.

Hope that helps.

Roll cages specifications, I wanted to just make my own but not if it wasn’t going to be acceptable and if I did have to buy one how soon would they deem it inadequate and call some new brand or new certain point cage only allowed or something to that effect

I could be wrong, but I don't think there's a class of SCCA Solo II that requires a roll cage. I've been doing it a year or so, so I could be very wrong- but I have raced in stock, SM and STS without a rollcage in any of my cars

I think if you have a roll cage it must be certified by a technition. Definatly not required in most classes though I believe.

I belive in time trials they require it but in autocross they dont, If Im not mistaken they have pretty strick rules (something about haveing to be a certain kind of bolt in I belive..) check out the scca page and goto solo, find the rule book and start reading, this will also help you get your car set up for a certain catigory

ive never seen a car in autocross with a cage. i dont think its required in any stage of autocross, just once you start road racing, im sure itsd required at some point
