Message As for preparation costs, here's a rough breakdown for the safety equipment:
Cage $2500-3000 with window net
Fire Suit $700
HANS $710
Helmet $350
Steering wheel $200
Quick release $250
fireproof underwear, socks, balaclava $500
Shoes $100
Gloves $100
Fire Extinguisher $250
Longacre Mirror $50
Disconnect Switch $100
Battery $140
Battery Box $50
Seat+brackets and slider $1000
6pt Harness $380
Tow Hook $65

so that's a min of about 7500-8000 right there just for safety stuff. Doesn't include misc labor besides the cage, any of the suspension/tires/wheels/brakes/wing/bolt ons. Hard to keep track of how many man hours went into it. I know it took me three days alone getting the sound deadening out with a heat gun, scraper and wd-40.
