I went over to North Weald airfield today to watch a friend take part in the 2011 ASEMIC Speed Championship. Basically i took the Clio along to have it scrutineered to see how it would fare and to see which catergory it could compete in.

They picked up on a couple of minor points that can easily be sorted but the main issue was the rollcage. I need to know the manufacturer/company who made this cage for the Clio Cup, there's no paperwork to prove the cage is ok to use in any competition in the MSA.

I believe the later 197 cages were made by Matter, i read the link below and it says the Cup rollcage easily exceeds the standards for the FIA but it's no good without certification for proof.

Is it an MSA championship? if so i thought that the roll cage only needed to conform to blue book standards for roll cage design?

The cage used in the clio cup race cars 182/72 in the btcc support races were made by matter also.

Cheers, browsing different sites there's stories of Matter going out of business as far back as 2006, strange as the 197s have Matter rollcages fitted. I read a thread saying Heigo is run by the same person who ran Matter.

Anyway, Sam i believe it is part of the MSA. From what i've read it can be scrutineered my an MSA scrutineer thats local to me from in the blue book
