Javelloy; The Aluminum Javelin Roll Cage
 
Hi there,
I wanted to ask, if we did an aluminum version of the Javelin roll cage would it be of some interest?
With the release of the RC10 roll cage I've had some inquires from a couple of people asking me if I would do it, "the Javelloy".
But I would hate to spend time and money in jigs and molds, etc.. Just to get stock with a bunch of aluminum roll cages, money and time invested.

I am more than happy with the Javesteels, but some are looking for something lighter for vintage racing although aluminum would and could easily bend in the event of a crash. The Javesteels in the other hand are tough as nails in that area.

So, here goes the blunt one; How many, if any, would be seriously interested in a "Javelloy".

Hi Ed. Thanks for taking the time to explain the drawbacks on forging an aluminum version of the javesteel cage to me the other day. I finally joined the forum and hope to post pics of the ones I got from you as soon I finish cleaning and rebuilding the optima bodies.
