As mentioned, the cage ties nicely into the chassis, which makes a very noticeable difference in chassis rigidity and the way the car reacts to input. I’m pretty sure this is what the kids these days would refer to as a No Flex Zone. Or something like that.
Another look at the door bars and more of the chassis tie-in points at the A-pillar.
Completely gutted doors not only help to decrease the weight, obviously, but they’re also necessary to allow enough room for the cage’s door bars.
The cockpit of the LSM3 is all business with everything being within easy reach for Jef to do some manhandling on track. The custom shift lever is not only bent back significantly to be within easy reach, but it’s at the perfect height to keep it as close to the wheel as possible without getting in the way.
A great view of the bent shift lever that controls the T101 4-speed dog box transmission, as well as the mandatory electrical cutoff switch and hopefully-never-needed fire system pull.
